This Year It Will Be Different by Maeve Binchy
3.0
Rounded up from about 2.5 ⭐️
This year it will be different is comprised of 22 short Christmas stories. Focusing on various people, relationships and difficulties.
I often find short-story collections difficult to get stuck into, and unfortunately I had the same issue with this book. It was enjoyable enough but none of the stories stood at to me. I didn’t particularly like or dislike any of the characters or plots. It just felt rather average, and isn’t memorable for me.
However, It was nice to be able to quickly pick up and put down during the busy Christmas period. I will definitely try more by this author as I liked the writing. I just don’t think this book was really for me.
