I really enjoyed Isobel and Tom together. They were adorable and fun to read about, it was very cute, christmas-y and adorable. Missing something, though because it all went fast.

This book has stayed with me since I read it. A perfect Christmas read. Isobel is done with London and has plans to go home when Tom crashes into her life. What follows are dates, chances, and all of the Christmas you can pack into one week.. Isobel doesn't know that Tom is famous and Tom doesn't know that Isobel is a journalist, but somehow they are able to live in the short moment they have together. A lovely holiday romance that just fills you up with holiday cheer. Will love conquer all?

This is a cute little Christmas story packed with holiday romance and holiday fun, it would be an amazing read for the Christmas season or any time of the year if you’re looking for a little bit of festivity to add to your every day life. The characters are so cute and I love the way they’re written and described, with the plot and overall storyline it works perfectly and is super cozy and lovely.

A gorgeously sumptuous Christmas book with London being the perfect backdrop!

Isabell and Tom were so likeable and their whole relationship from their first meeting where they literally fell for each other, their instant chemistry - to their frenemies stare as actor and journalist was so feel good and so much fun!

Throw in all the Christmas vibes: ice skating, mulled wine, carols and this was a fabulous perfect read!

I requested this book years ago, and am no longer interested in reading. Thank you for the opportunity.

Sweet little Christmas read. What are the chances you will fall in love with a man you met at a bus stop only 7 days before your off to London for good?! It seemed like fate when this happens 2 days in a row for Isobel. He’s a big shot actor and she is a journalist. Which he hates! Will Isobel get her fairytale!? I’d imagine so. Light and sweet read.

Super quick Christmas romance. I guess I just wanted a bit more steam, a bit more character development. The characters were lacking something. I didn't get how they all of the sudden 'loved' each other and I firmly believe in love at first sight. I really didn't like the development of Tom. He seemed lacking, I just can't put my finger on it.

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for providing me with an ARC in exchange for an honest review!

While One Week 'Til Christmas isn't the most memorable book I've ever read, I do remember it being a good time, especially if you read it around the holidays. I actually found myself thinking about the story and the characters after the fact and wishing I was back in the world for just a little bit, which is always a good sign in my book. I'd definitely be interested in checking out more from Belinda Missen in the future!

Um romance de Natal que deixa o coração quente e feliz. Isabell e Tom tem uma química maravilhosa, mas eles se conheceram em um momento complicado. Ele é um ator em ascenção que não gosta de jornalistas, e ela é uma jornalista que irá entrevistá-lo, a química fala mais alto, mas Isabell tem apenas uma semana em Londres antes de ir para a Austrália, e é nesse enredo que o romance vai se desenvolver. Uma delícia de livro para ler em uma tarde em qualquer época do ano.

This was my favorite holiday read of the year. It was just Hallmark-y enough without being too terribly predictable. It was just what I was looking for and I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Thanks Netgalley and the publisher for an advanced copy.

Thank you netgalley for allowing me to read this holiday story. I regret waiting so long to read this. It was such a cute story and it had my insides feeling good and festive! Read this sooner than I did! You won’t regret it.

One Week ‘TIL Christmas by Belinda Missen is a fun Christmas story. I really wanted to like this story but I could not get over the writing style. The author kept breaking the rule of “show don’t tell” and this made the writing awkward. Also, as a reader, I want to figure out what’s happening, not be told what to think directly. I received a digital copy of this book from the publisher with no obligations. These opinions are entirely my own.

Unfornatetly this was many of the book that I had gotten and found myself not finishing. I thought it would be charming Christmas story and perhaps it would if I give it more of a chance but sadly I Did not finish this one and called it quits at around 20% in to it. Which is why I don't think its fair to rate it any less than an average rating of three since I did not finish the entire book. Read other book reviews

This was such a fun holiday read!!! I really enjoy Christmas stories and this one was just right! I can read them throughout the year! I really liked the authors writing style. From start to finish you were enveloped in her story. I liked Isobel and Tom. I enjoyed the chemistry they had from the very beginning. If you like cute holiday romance then this book is for you!!!
