About this listen

This Christmas, sprinkle some Cecelia Ahern magic in your life.

If you could wish for one gift this Christmas, what would it be?

Lou Suffern wishes he could be in two places at once. His constant battle with the clock is a sensitive issue with his wife and family.

Gabe wishes he was somewhere warm. When Lou invites Gabe, a homeless man who sits outside his office, into the building and into his life, Lou’s world is changed beyond all measure…

An enchanting and thoughtful Christmas story that speaks to all of us abut the value of time and what is truly important in life.

I found this book slow to start and almost returned it but thankfully it got better and I did enjoy it . The story is a little old and probably a bit predictable but don’t let that put you off

Not so much a Christmas cracker

I must admit that halfway through I was getting very annoyed with Lou and couldn’t really see where it was going, but stick with it the end or towards the end it gets better and better, and deep thinking is triggered!

A thinking book!
