Good morning everyone and Happy Christmas Eve. It seems like a good time to start this book today! I have loved all of her previous books and found them hilarious so I’m really looking forward to this one.
Huge thanks to Indie Thinking for sending me a copy of this book.
This is my last post before Christmas so I also want to say a huge thanks to everyone for supporting me this year and I wish you a Merry Christmas!
Book Synopsis:
Mummy has always loved Christmas. Sure, the kids turn into demons, the dinner gets burnt to a crisp and Aunt Louisa’s general staggering inappropriateness sends Mummy reaching for the nearest maximum-strength festive tipple, but nevertheless, for her, Christmas is always special.
This year, she wants nothing more than to perfectly fig up the pudding and sit by the fire reading aloud from A Christmas Carol to a rapt, rosy-cheeked audience. But, just like all Mummy’s best-laid plans, this year’s Festive Vision is in danger of being totally derailed by her chaotic family. There’s not much chance of any action under the mistletoe, and the kids are just not playing ball.
Can Mummy find her silver lining after all and bring the whole family together for one moment of harmony, so they can finally proclaim ‘Verily You Are the Queen of Christmas’? Or should she get stuck into the festive spirits and just let it all go?
Gill Sims’ book ‘The Saturday Night Sauvignon Sisterhood’ was a Sunday Times bestseller w/c 16-05-2022.
