Review: The Wisteria Tree Cottage

The Wisteria Tree Cottage The Wisteria Tree Cottage by Holly Martin
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I absolutely love Holly Martin books. There’s nothing like them for pure enjoyment!

The Wisteria Tree Cottage is again set in the Wishing Wood, which is forest full of treehouses - and what a wonderful setting! Reading these books feels like a holiday.

The story follows Meadow and Bear, who have loved each other for a long time, but life has got in the way. Now they are best friends, and don’t know how to change that without losing their friendship.

I just loved this book so much. So much so, it’s hard to say why. I love both Bear and Meadow, and I love how they gradually come to realise the other loves them too. I loved Star too, and her love of animals. The way they function together as a family (along with Heath) is lovely to see. There are plenty of humorous moments as well as heartwarming ones. And the epilogue just rounds it off perfectly.

Overall, this was a delightful and romantic story, that warmed the cockles of my heart. And just confirmed Holly Martin as my go to author when I want to feel happy.

I was given a free copy of this book, my opinions are my own.

Review: Sweet Mercies

Sweet Mercies by Anne Booth My rating: 5 of 5 stars I loved Small Miracles, so I was thrilled to be offered a copy of Sweet Mercies (the sequel) to review. I was such a joy to return and spend time with the Sisters of Saint Philomena again. I loved the sense of community, both in the convent, and the wider area. It’s wonderful to see how all the characters are getting on, they feel like old friends. I especially loved the kittens, and their interactions with Sister Cecilia. The plot was great, I loved all the different threads running through the book, and the way they intertwined. I enjoyed the sense of history, and the way it all comes together in the end. Overall, this book was a joy to read, full of community and kindness. I really hope that there will be more books in the series. I’d love to learn more about Sister Cecilia’s past.

Review: The Christmas Love Letters: a gorgeous, heartwarming new Christmas romance to cosy up with this winter

The Christmas Love Letters: a gorgeous, heartwarming new Christmas romance to cosy up with this winter by Sue Moorcroft My rating: 5 of 5 stars I love Sue Moorcroft books, and Christmas books, so I was excited to be invited to read The Christmas Love Letters. I was not disappointed! I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book. I loved the story relating to the love letters, and how they (eventually) brought people together. I loved the setting. Nelson’s Bar is clearly a beautiful place near the sea, and all the snow made the book seem extra Christmassy. The characters were also great. I loved Maddy, and the way she’s coped under difficult circumstances, and given Lyla such a lovely childhood. I really liked Raff too, and in fact all the other characters, with the exception of Harris. I understand his reasons, but that is not how you treat anyone you care about! Sue Moorcroft has produced another beautifully romantic and Christmassy story. I highly recomme

Review: The Ice Garden

The Ice Garden by Guy Jones My rating: 4 of 5 stars A magical tale. I really enjoyed this book. I so felt for the main character, as I’m allergic to the sun too (though not to anything like the same extent). It is nice to see a book where disability is not magically fixed, but seen as something you have to learn to live with. View all my reviews
