Thankfully, Kate
Blackadder keeps Stella’s Christmas Wish
on the right side of syrup. This is a lovely, heart-warming festive read.
Blackadder writes confidently and with a great sense of pace.
I fell in love with the characters and
actually wished they were real … I loved reading about them and the way their
lives intertwined … I really, really, want there to be a sequel …
Later on as we discover the truth I
thought the reasons for Maddie's absence were heartfelt and brought a lovely
tone and atmosphere to the story.
Stella quickly became a very sympathetic
character for me.
The beauty of Scotland
comes alive in this story, and the characters are so engaging and really make
you care about them.
