This should absolutely be made into a holiday movie. It would be WAY more entertaining to watch than most of the schlocky stuff on tv during the holiday season.
There’s so much to enjoy in this light, fun read. It’s super festive. It has cute (if predictable) romance tropes. The quaint English village vibes are PERFECTION - really, sense of place is a definite strength for this author. As a bonus there’s a lot of scrumptious food writing worked into the storyline. Kate is a very likable heroine with a sense of humour - in some ways a little reminiscent in her energy of Bridget Jones but without being so hapless and out of control.
If you’re after an easy holiday read, I think this could be just the ticket. And the audio is lovely!
