The Christmas Stocking and Other Stories - Katie Fforde (2017)

 

A collection of short stories all set during the Christmas holidays: young people in unhappy relationships and alone who find love on Christmas; two newlyweds who, after a disastrous wedding, have a romantic and perfect honeymoon; families getting together; friends helping each other; a Christmas fairy brings joy to children spending the special day without their parents.
The stories are very Christmassy but they are also predictable and similar to each other. They didn't captivate me and most of the time I knew exactly how the story was going to end. The characters are realistic but slightly boring but at least they'll get you in the Christmas mood. (NP) 5/10
