Review: This is such a lovely book to get you in the Christmas mood. Although I am a fan of Tanya, I was a little wary when I pre-ordered this, as in the past I've been disappointed by books etc released by bloggers / vloggers / YouTubers. However, I was really pleasantly surprised. Not only are the craft projects and recipes actual projects and recipes (as opposed to relying on a lot of pre-made things and simply putting them together), but the longer written sections are nicely written, well thought out, and really warm and friendly. I particularly like the baking section, and absolutely can't wait to get some gingerbread made! The ideas aren't all reliant on you having lots of spare cash, and the emphasis on enjoying Christmas and socialising but remembering to take time for yourself to relax and recharge is so important - I really appreciate that the book isn't telling you how to be the perfect host with the most instagrammable Christmas - it is about enjoying yourself, making the most of the season with friends and family, and generally just an enthusiasm for the whole season which is something I can definitely get behind! The photography throughout is very nice and really breaks up the text, as well as adding nice personal touches from Tanya - I liked the more candid shots and the older photos which were less polished than the posed photos (which were lovely too of course from Tanya). All in all it is a beautiful book, that will look as good on your coffee table over the season as all the wonderful decor inspiration you will get from it. Even the paper feels nice! Overall, I'm very very happy with this purchase, and I can see this being a book I refer back to year after year for party ideas, wonderful recipes and some crafting to get cosy with whilst it's stormy outside. A real Christmassy treat!

Review: Book is absolutely gorgeous, the photography is so stylish and super festive. I bought this book for the recipes, after watching some of Tanya's insta stories and she talks about the scheduling of Christmas dinner I thought this is the book for me, my timings are always off. Someone has literally told me how and when to do it, excellent. The section on present inspiration for presents is insightful and thoughtful and the craft projects are achievable with little creativity skill without looking like you have no creativity skills. The negative, now I'm not gonna jump in and try the Christmas day meal recipes first, I'll start small with the baking I thought. I'm quite a keen baker and my bakes are quite well sought after by the family now. I tried the ginger cupcakes, complete mess!!! The batter is too wet to fill the cases to two thirds as suggested, there is no fan oven temp given and all in all was a bit of a disaster. I am going to try again and make some tweaks but I really shouldn't have to do that.
