Hello from the Gillespies: Get ready for Christmas with this feel-good festive read

by Monica Mc Inerney (Author)

Synopsis

The international Number One bestseller brings us a sparkling and hilarious Christmas novel about family life

Angela Gillespie's annual Christmas letter has always been full of her family's triumphs. But this year Angela surprises everyone, including herself - she tells the truth.

Angela's husband is in the throes of a mid-life crisis. Her daughters are more out of control than ever. And her youngest child spends all of his time talking to an imaginary friend.

As the repercussions of her ruthlessly honest letter begin to pile up, a shocking event takes Angela from her family, and she realises she should have been more careful of what she wished for . . .
