So here we go!

What drink says Christmas for you?

Lisa: Baileeeyyyyyyys – it’s the best best best and I would like some now, please.

Trish: I'm a Baileys girl! But traditionally, it's always been eggnog (non - alcoholic).

Q: What's your most treasures Christmas gift you ever received?

Lisa: That’s a hard one… Does the engagement ring I got a week before Christmas in 2010 count? Yes, yes it does!

Trish: The flowered blanket my Mum crocheted and gave me the last Xmas before she passed. It's gorgeous and I love it!

Q: What's your fave festive song?

Lisa: So many! I love Last Christmas by Wham for it’s wonderful cheese-factor.

Trish: O Holy Night sung by Reba McEntire. Just beautiful and gives me goosebumps.

Q: What’s your fave movie to watch on Christmas Eve?

Lisa: It's A Wonderful Life - just a perfect film to curl up with the night before Christmas...

Trish: A Charlie Brown Christmas. Have watched it every year since I was tiny and it isn't Christmas without it!

Q: What Christmas book do you wish you’d written?

Lisa: A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens – to me, this is the ultimate Christmas story.

Trish: The Twelve Dates of Christmas! Seriously, it's so funny and festive and cute! I adore it!!

Q: How do you like your Christmas jumpers?

Lisa: As tacky and 3D and garishly-coloured as possible, preferably with advent calendar windows sewn in and bells dangling off the arms.

Trish: On someone else... I love when other people where them but it's not something I'll ever wear! I'll wear Christmas socks and even my Muppets Merry Kissmas undies, but not ever a Christmas jumper! Bah Humbug!!

That was so much fun! Thanks so much, Lisa! The Twelve Dates of Christmas is out in PAPERBACK on 22nd October from Little Brown and I urge you to buy it! It's brilliant!!

Tishylou Is Making A Comeback!

Hi! Fancy seeing you here! Well, actually, fancy seeing ME here as I'm the one who has been AWOL. Life has been changing so much for me these past 3 years that my love of blogging got pushed aside. But I just celebrated my 49th birthday and felt compelled to revive my blog. I have still been reading and reviewing, but it's mainly been short posts on my social media pages, like Tiktok and Instagram. I really miss long form reviews and the personal posts I used to share with you. So, I'm going back to my roots. I plan on doing a Get To Know Me post soon for those of you who aren't familiar with me and my crazy life. That will be followed by bringing and expanding some of my Tiktok reviews on here. I have chosen 10 very special books for my first 2 weeks of posts, and I hope you'll feel how much I love them and what they mean to me. So, I'll leave you with this for now. To those who have always supported and encouraged me, thank you from the bottom of my heart. ...

Blog Tour Stop and Review of All Wrapped Up by Heidi Swain

Hi friends! Long time no see! I have been so bad at blogging, and any book reviews I've done have been just on my social media pages. But it's tradition that when a new Heidi Swain book comes out, it HAS to appear on my blog! In fact, my last blog post was almost a year ago, for a Heidi book.

The locations are always idyllic and the characters always make me want to befriend them. All Wrapped Up is no exception. What They Say : In Wynbridge, the scent of autumn is on the breeze and love is in the air… Clemmie Bennett has been renovating beautiful Rowan Cottage on the outskirts of the small town of Wynbridge, for eighteen months following a very public heartbreak back in her childhood hometown. The popular Instagram influencer, lost her husband, sold their home, and has been cosied up the Fens and living a very private life, but now she feels it’s time for ...

She’s found a way to keep the house she inherited from her grandparents while expanding her dream business – Away With the Fairies – and she’s ecstatic that Christmas is on the horizon! In fact, everything is perfect until family friend, Catherine Connelly asks Bella if she’d be willing to rent part of the house to freelance author, Jude who is researching the history of the Connelly Clan and Wynthorpe Hall ahead of turning his findings into a book. The plan had been for Jude to stay at the hall, but he can’t cope with the chaos and Bella reluctantly agrees to open her door to him. Initially, the pair clash but then friendlier feelings begin to grow and Bella finds herself wondering if Jude could become more than just another guest before it’s time for him to leave.
