Publisher's summary

The perfect recipe for hygge: make a hot chocolate, draw the curtains, snuggle under a blanket and read your way to happiness!

It's autumn in Yulethorpe and everyone is gloomy. It's cold, drizzly and the skies are permagrey. The last shop on the high street - an adorable little toy shop - has just shut its doors. Everything is going wrong for Yulethorpe this autumn. Until Clara Kristensen arrives.

Clara is on holiday but she can see the potential in the pretty town, so she rolls up her sleeves and sets to work. Things are looking up until Joe comes to Yulethorpe to find out exactly what is going on with his mother's shop. Joe is Very Busy and Important in the City and very sure that Clara is up to no good. Surely no one would work this hard just for the fun of it?

Can a man who answers emails at 3 a. m. learn to appreciate the slower, happier, hygge things in life - naps, candles, good friends and maybe even falling in love?

Perfect Crafting Companion!

Before The Hygge Holiday, I didn't know I needed Crafting Companion to be an Audible category. This book is the perfect listen while crafting or decorating solo, with Clara being the inobtrusive friend who lets you make all the creative decisions while also being brilliant herself at decorating. Made a fun activity even more enjoyable!

Loved it!

Great narration for this story. The development of the characters was well paced. The humor behind the travel to Spain was clever and laugh out loud -worthy. A slowly developing romance wrapped in a woman hungry for belonging. Hungry, but not desperate made the story so very sweet.

Enjoyed every minute!

The reader makes this charming book even more delightful. I could listen to her read forever.
Perfect book to listen to on a cozy fall weekend. I wanted to move to the village and become friends with them all!

Loved the Sweet, Cozy Tale

Loved the simplicity of this book and how it served as a reminder to slow down and "smell the roses" so to speak. Loved it! Will no doubt listen to it again. Narrator did a beautiful job. Enjoyed how the accent made it all the more hygge.

My favorite

The Hygge Holiday has brought me intense pleasure in the numerous times I've listened to the audible book. The soft, expressive voice of the narrator is a perfect companion to a story of wonder, optimism and creativity. My last listen will surely not be my last listen. Wish there were more like it. I'm on the lookout.

I wish I had a toy shop

A village toy shop. That’s all I need. With a flat above. This story has convinced me! It’s not asking too much, right? It’s a fun read with good characters. A well-rounded story with one tiny plot hole - Joe would not have been able to enter into any agreement to sell his mother’s shop without the legal right to it. Crisis averted. Thankfully, the plot didn’t hinge on this detail for long. In the end, I enjoyed the story and wish I could visit!
