Christmas is just around the corner when Star begins working at Butterburn library, but not everyone is embracing the spirit of the season.
Sixteen-year-old Arianna’s mock exams are looming and she’s feeling under pressure. With her father living abroad and her mother working three jobs, she doesn’t have much support at home.
The bank is threatening to repossess Evan’s house, and he has no idea how he’s going to get through Christmas with two children who are used to getting everything they want.
Patricia’s cliché of a husband, after 23 years of marriage, has announced he’s moving out of the family home, and moving in with his secretary.
Daniel is doing the work of three people in his sales job, as well as looking after his kids and his wife. Pulled in too many different directions, he’s feeling stressed out.
Can Star, the library’s Good Samaritan, help set them on the path to happiness this Christmas?
Thank you to JB for letting me take part in this tour. I read The Christmas Spirit last year and absolutely loved the story so when I heard this book was on tour I knew I had to be part of it.
This book is a year on from The Christmas Spirit, with a new name and a new town Star can’t wait to inject some Christmas cheer into her four charges.
I really enjoyed reading about the characters in Butterburn. Their struggles are easy to identify with and you really start to feel for the characters.
Susan has done a great job of creating this little town and I feel very festive after reading it. I enjoyed seeing how each of the characters christmas day’s turned out and I can’t wait for mine this year.
I loved the last Chapter of this book and hope to read another book in this series one day.
