A one-of-a-kind survival manual for everybody's least favourite aspect of the holiday season: having to spend it with your family.
From the forensic science that is gift giving - 'but what does this really convey about me as a person?' - to who sits where at the dining table, the nuances between a roast chicken and roast turkey, and how Boxing Day was probably invented so that people could finish games of Monopoly (if you are, that is, still talking to each other by that point), A Very British Christmas is a wryly hilarious celebration of Unbearably Awkward Britishness at the most Unbearably Awkward time of year.

Not only do you receive a sparkly Christmas book, signed by the author in my case, you also receive a well made Christmas Card and paper to wrap it in, so a full present ready to assemble. The book is witty, informative and has something for everyone whether you love or loathe Christmas. Relatable, heck yes, sometimes a little to close to home, maybe I’m a grinch. A great present for those hard to buy relatives and yes there’s a section on that as well. Enjoy I did.
Hi Claire.
What a lovely, thoughtful review! Thank you so much for that. I loved the wrapping paper and card that the book came with too, makes gifting it much easier!
