And living with them. Grow up!

But this is a xmas story, so it will all work out, sort of, there are threads left hanging, oh well, everyone had a lovely xmas at least.




Cheerful, with some hmm moments

Can the imperfect family really have the perfect Christmas

Juliet Joyce adores Christmas, She loves the presents, the tree, the turkey, the tinsel, everything, Already the festive spirit upon her, which is just as well as this Christmas things are starting to get out of hand,
Her son Tom is out of work and bringing home a slew of unsuitable partners pregnant daughter Chloe and her little boy have moved back in Juliet's father Frank, is getting over a heartbreak of his own and Rita, her eccentric mother, is behaving more erratically each day.
And has the chaos got too much for Juliet's husband Rick

With the big day fast approaching, Juliet hopes that she can stop everything spiralling out of control, because the only thing she wants is her family all around her and her home to be filled.



I've recently started reading Carole Matthew's Books, first book to read was Summer daydreams and I loved that so I knew with this book I wouldn't be disappointed! With Christmas just around the corner I thought this book would be perfect to get me in the festive spirit and make me very excited.

Straight away the thing i loved the most about the book was the front cover, it was amazingly bright and colourful and was very festive which I just couldn't help but have my own copy!

We meet the lovely Joyce family where Christmas nut Juliet is busy making sure she has everything right and perfect for her family for Christmas.
. With this book we follow from the beginning up until Christmas Day with little problems always occurring one way or another, This book does have a lovely big mix of characters but I loved that all the characters linked together but all had their own problems and plans but they all managed to help each other especially in the spirit of Christmas.
By the end of the story I actually felt i was part of the family and had been through the same problems with them, My favourite character would have to be Juliet, she is a Christmas nut like myself and I just loved her personality and thought she was full of happiness and caring nature for her family.


Carole Matthews definitely did a splendid job at writing this story it was very creative and soon had you hooked by every chapter, I bow to you Carole you certainly are the Queen of Chick lit in my eyes and are an amazing writer,

This book is a fabulous read and recommend anyone to pick up this book and read! It is a very warm and festive read which will have you laughing, crying and smiling alot but the story also has drama and heartbreak however it really does bring a love of Christmas cheer and a sprinkle of snow to the whole family!
You will definitely feel in the festive mood when you've read this! Easy to read but very hard to put down.
The type of book that you want to snuggle by the fire

and enjoy, Recommended. It was a wonderful book, filled with The Christmas Spirit! I couldn't stop reading it!
At the beginning I was very slow in reading I, but later on it boosted up my spirits too.
A finely crafted story, where it shows the true bond and love of a family, Family life can be chaotic, aggressive and filled with disagreements and arguments, But in the end, there is always each other to hold on for and to be loved,
The story is full of life and love, I must say, Juliet and Rick are the most adorable characters in the story, No matter how hard the life seems to be, they cope up with it, while safeguarding their children and parents, It is amazing to see the courage and the sacrifices they do, to keep their family together and protected,
In the end the story shows, the unconditional love of parents, towards their children,
I loved every bit of the story and the characters, I enjoyed it very much! Best book for the festive season,
Oh my God. I am so sad that I have started reading this book at all because now it's already finished: I think it was the bestread and I am givingout ofstars.

At the beginning I though that family Joyce is a little too extreme for my liking, but it was just at the beginning and I almost imediately forgot about my doubts.
There were no doubts more, I loved absolutely everything about this book, maybe exept chloe, and even the ending didn't change my feeling to her, Too selfish and too self obsessed for my liking, But nevertheless, I have laughed out loud and I have cried really!!! reading this book, So many emotions, so many warm emotions and feelings, I don't remember such a book for a long time, Reading about Juliet and Rick I must thought about my parents, about this how they are struggling with their lives and how they will do anything for their children to be happy.
Juliet and Rick are the same, and maybe this is the secret of this book: that it's so downt to earth, so normal, aboult people like we are, who have their problems and they must solve them, as they do not solve themselves, like for eg.
for Becky in the "Shopaholic", Juliet and Rick, so normal and so unusual at the same time, putting themselves at the very end and trying to help other, strange poeple, sometimes forgetting about their other half.
Loving each other and loving their family and friends, amazing, I just can't find enough words to say how much I loved this book, and really, I had my own family before my eyes, maybe not so extreme when it comes to choosing a life partner, but almost likewise chaotic.
And my mother, like Juliet, trying to give her best,
One thing: there is not a name like "Merak" in Poland, It is "Marek" : The only minus point, as it distracted me every time,
Made me to want Christmas to be yet nicer than usual,
And made me to wait for the next Carole's book, Words: Christmas, family, love, kindness, generosity,

AUDIOBOOK

Don't you just hate it when you listen to a sample and all is great and then when you're about/of the way through you up the speed because it's starting to drag

I don't think it was the story, although it was rather slow at times, but the narrator had a pretty grating voice after a while.


It was a pretty good story, and although it felt at times that nothing was happening, an awful lot had happened by the end, It was enjoyable enough and did have its funny moments, and when the pace picked up at the end I found myself enjoying it a lot more, Can the imperfect family really have the perfect Christmas

This gave me such a great Christmas feeling, I just wanted December to come again, I could picturedays of Christmas on ABC Family and hear Mariah Carey's "All I Want For Christmas" playing, My family is imperfect as well so I could relate however, I honestly couldn't stand Juliet's kids and because of them I gave this bookstars, They were spoiled, selfish, little shits that all I wanted to do was slap them and Juliet for putting up with their behavior, They are adults and that's how they treat their parents Where is the respect

Don't not read this book because of her kids, I'm just saying they really pissed me off, .
