About book The Magic Of Christmas. Trisha Ashley (2011)
This book is probably a bit more exciting if you're into cooking, but overall I thought it took a long time to say little with spots of 'action' too rushed to make too much of an impact. Given it's title I agree with the other person that it's not particularly festive.Lizzy is a long suffering wife to an adulterous husband, Tom, who has spent years making her miserable in her marriage. With her son, Jasper, about to leave for university, Lizzy decides she will leave him when Jasper is out of the house. Before they reach that stage, Tom dies and Lizzy finds herself widowed.In the small village she has a lot of friends, his family and a smattering of hostile parties and Lizzy finds herself in the midst of planning the Christmas play, trying to help out where she can, coming to terms with the empty house she now lives in and the one or two prospects for a new man in her life.Overall the plot is pretty thin on the ground and the characters pretty flat and undeveloped within the village to the point where you can end up getting some of the more secondary ones confused. This is another great book by Trisha Ashley. It starts in August where Lizzy and some of the residents of Middlemoss are having there Christmas Pudding Circle meeting. They start organsing who is baking what in the run up to christmas for the senior citizen hampers.Lizzy is the main character of the book. She is not happy in her marriage and when things take a turn for the worse in her marraige she has that also to deal with. The villagers of Middlemoss alos put on a christmas play so she has to reherse for that.Everything that is going on in the book works so well together and all links together very well. Another great book by Trisha Ashley and can not wait for her next one.
