With Christmas now a mere two months away, it's not surprising
that there are some wonderful Christmas titles available and upcoming. One of
this year's festive titles is Ann Pearlman's The Christmas Cookie Club, which
was released in hardback in 2009. It's soon to be available in paperback, and
will hit the shelves on October 14th with a brand new look. And we have to say,
the new cover is absolutely beautiful!
The new cover is on the right. Personally we reckon they're both adorably festive, but the new jacket looks fab. What do you think? Leave a comment and let us know!
If you haven't read The Christmas Cookie Club, then check out the synopsis:
What would we do without one another? It was a statement, not a question. Each of us knew the answer for herself. Every year on the first Monday of December, Marnie and her twelve closest girlfriends gather with batches of beautifully wrapped homemade cookies. Everyone has to bring a dish and a bottle of wine and, as they eat, they take turns telling the story of the cookies they have baked. Stories that, somehow, are always emblematic of the year that has just passed. This year, the stories are especially important. Marnie's oldest daughter has a risky pregnancy. Will she find out tonight how that story will end? Jeannie's father is having an affair with her best friend. Who else knew about the betrayal? Rosie's husband doesn't want children, but can she live with his decision? Each woman, each friend has a story to tell. The Cookie Club is about the passion and hopefulness of a new romance, the betrayal and disillusionment some relationships bring, the joys and fears of motherhood, and above all, it's a celebration of the friendships between women.
