Ich habe in den letzten Jahren immer schon gern die weihnachtlichen Geschichten von Jenny Hale gelesen und sie haben mir fast alle sehr gut gefallen. Bei dieser Geschichte hat es mir allerdings etwas zu lange gedauert, bis die richtige Stimmung aufkam. Die Erbschaftsgeschichte zog sich einfach so in die Länge. Aber ab der Hälfte war es dann dieser winterlich weihnachtliche Wohlfühlroman, wie ich ihn von der Autorin gewöhnt bin. Die letzte Botschaft von Nan hat noch dann auch zu Tränen gerührt. Es ist kein reiner Liebesroman, sondern es geht auch um Freundschaft, Familie und Zusammenhalt ❤️

3.5 I have been a huge fan of the previous Christmas books by Jenny Hale, so I have been very excited to read her newest book. At the beginning I had some trouble getting into the story and the pulling over the estate couldn't hold my interest all the time. But the story grew more and more and me and to the end I really liked it. There was such a cosy and homely atmosphere, which I really enjoyed. There were some happy tears several times. The characters were really sweet. I liked David, Leah and especially Sadie. She was such a cute little girl. The love story was predicatable and came rather too quick for my taste. I wish there would have been a build of chemistry earlier. All I want for Christmas is a great seasonal read about the importance and the love of family ties.
