Synopsis
To look to the future, you first have to face your past…
With Christmas just around the corner, Molly Bliss has almost hit rock bottom.
After the heart-breaking loss of her parents, an escape to Iceland to spend the holidays with her sister Claudia is a chance for her to find solace and focus on her neglected relationship with her boyfriend Howard. But when Howard ‘misses his flight’, Molly is forced to rethink her whole outlook on life.
Surrounded by her family, Molly has never felt more alone. With ongoing family tensions rumbling and a surprising connection with old flame Leifur and his friend James, Molly realises she has an opportunity to rediscover who she really is.
While exploring the wild beauty of Iceland, a fragile hope seeds itself in Molly and alongside the life-affirming experiences and new friendships that are forged, she’s forced to question why she ever put her own dreams on hold.
Will Molly allow grief and disappointment to destroy her chance at happiness, or can new love sparkle as the land of fire and ice begins to work its magic?

My Thoughts
In my opinion it’s never too early to begin reading wintery books and this year my first venture into cooler climates is One Winter’s Night and it is such a wonderful place to begin.
Kate Frost describes Iceland in such a vivid and beautiful way. I have never been – it’s on my list – but I feel as though I have experienced a short trip there through this book. I loved seeing Jolabokaflod in a book too as I had heard of it but never seen it as part of someone’s life before which I loved. I adored seeing all the different fun and touristy things that Molly experienced but also experiencing it through Claudia’s eyes as someone who lives there. It was fabulous having both perspectives.
Molly is such a sweet character. She’s spent two years caring for elderly parents and her boyfriend isn’t much use or support. I enjoyed being part of her healing journey and at times, I just wanted to envelop her into a huge hug and take care of her. I love books where characters are real – and go through real struggles – and Molly was definitely relatable.
One Winter’s Night is such an emotional, but wonderful story and it’s the perfect start to your festive/winter reading!
