A review by abookishgirl
Covent Garden in the Snow by Jules Wake

4.0

Thoroughly sweet and readable Christmas chicklit! And I loved the fact that it was set in the London opera world. My only gripe is that the author (and/or her editor) seem to have a massive aversion to commas, and the lack of them made some sentences difficult to follow. I'm not mentioning this because I want to be a "This is WRONG!" grammar Nazi, but when there are sentences like, "I'm going to get you Mary" or "I'm upstairs John" without commas, it's REALLY jarring, and pulls me right out of the world of the book. Plus it can change the meaning sometimes (hence the book "Let's eat Grandma!" :-))

I'm definitely keen to read some other books by Jules Wake, but I hope they don't all have this problem!
