My Thoughts:

This is my first Christmas read of the year and what a spectacular book to start with. I love a book by Jo Thomas, she is such a great writer and always makes you feel warm and cosy inside. The story is about Clara, she decides to take a big leap of faith in her new boyfriend and move across the world with him to Switzerland, nothing is going right for her at home so why not. Clara enrols in a chocolate making class but does not realise how hard is really is and it does not help when other people in the group are making her life hard but with a bit of determination and grit she manages to prove to herself she can do it. The least said about her boyfriend the better. It was a perfect read to get snuggled up with. I love how warm Jo’s writing is and her characters are always good rounders. The chocolate side of things were a bonus and I would suggest having a chocolate or two on the side whilst reading this book as I felt hungry reading about the delicious recipes. A great read.

I received an ARC copy of this book for an honest review.
