I can't think of a better way to get into the Christmas spirit than with this book! It gave me such a warm fuzzy feeling and is one that I will definitely pick up again.

Leah wakes up one morning to find that she has purchased a Christmas tree farm after having a little too much to drink the night before. As she's wanting a change, she packs up and moves to the farm only to find that it's not exactly what she thought it would be. She's ready to give up and go home when her pumpkin farmer neighbour Noel comes over to help her out and Leah is determined to prove his notion wrong that she will fail.

This book is full of friends, love and Christmas spirit, and I swear that I could almost smell the evergreen trees and pumpkin bread.

I really enjoyed this book. It been on my read list for a while because I can’t read Christmas books in the summer! It took a couple of chapters for me to get into it, but the main story was a lovely read. I felt the ending was a little rushed, but had the expected outcome. It made me feel really Christmassy with the storyline and the descriptions whilst reading. Thank you for accepting my request and I’d definitely look out for Jaimie’s next book.

I absolutely loved this book! It's dreamy, festive, hilariously funny, romantic. Just everything you could wish for in a festive read!

I'm not surprised, though. Jaimie Admams is a brilliant writer. Her books always hit the spot.

I really loved Leah, Noel, and especially Gizmo, so much! Peppermint Branches sounds like my kinda place.

“Snowflakes at the Little Christmas Tree Farm” by Jaimie Admans was the perfect holiday romance. It was cute, made me laugh, and just so fun. I absolutely adored this book. Highly recommend!

This one just wasn't for me - I don't like being cheated on at the Christmas party as a trope in my cosy Christmas reads. Unfortunately I think there were a bunch of these that came out at the same time and reading the same sad premise didn't feel festive. I thought the writing was ok and I would check out this author in the future. I also really liked the cover.

This was a perfect holiday read for cozying up with a cup of tea and blanket in front of the fire. This put me right in the Christmas spirit!

I received an arc of this title from NetGalley for an honest review. This is a cute romance novel about a woman who accidentally buys a tree farm after one too many beverages. She of course hates men after her cheating ex, but there is an adorable and cranky pumpkin farmer next door.

This was such a fun and enjoyable read. I fell in love with the little town and all its crazy people. Leah and Noel were fun to get to know and watch navigate all the ups and downs that can come with someone learning how to farm/run a Christmas tree farm. When I finished I immediately looked at what other books Adams had out. That's a true sign that I enjoyed the writing and the story. Thank you, NetGalley for the eARC. I really enjoyed it.

I've been a big fan of Jaimie's writing right from her first book. She writes characters you want to root for and settings you want to be a part of and The LIttle Christmas Tree Farm was no exception.

This is such a cute book! I loved the setting of a Christmas tree farm in Scotland and the way the relationship built between the characters. The only thing I don’t like is the cover. I would skip this book in a bookstore because of the cover and that’s a bummer because it’s so good!

I loved this book!!!
I definitely felt the Christmas spirit with this one. I loved the sense of community and that slow burn romance?! Wowee the chemistry between Lee and her Scottish pumpkin farmer was intense.

What could be better than a sweet, holiday romance set at a Christmas tree farm!? This book was so darn cute and made me feel very in the holiday mood and spirit. This is one that I would highly recommend!!!

Unfortunately, I have not been able to read and review this book.

After losing and replacing my broken Kindle and getting a new phone I was unable to download the title again for review as it was no longer available on Netgalley.

I’m really sorry about this and hope that it won’t affect you allowing me to read and review your titles in the future.

Thank you so much for giving me this opportunity.

This book was almost the perfect festive read for me! It had a woman of relatable age drunkenly buying a Christmas tree farm and completely changing her life - for the better.
There was a delicious, unbelievably lovely, but slightly grumpy hero to help her find her feet in her new life, whacky and wonderful secondary characters - who didn't take up too much page time - and lots and lots of festive goodness! It's very much a Christmas book but Noel - Mr lovely grumpy pants - is predominantly a pumpkin farmer so you could read this any time from September onwards and just feel happy inside... Actually, you could read it anytime and feel happy inside but you get what I mean... It would give you happy autumn/winter vibes at point of the year, and since Sept-Dec are my favourite times of year, it's not surprising that I adored this book really. Add to that Adman's usual warmth and laughter and you have a marvellous book.
So, why four stars instead of five? Well, there was a revelation towards the end of the book - that was fairly obvious from the beginning of the book - that was blown massively out of proportion by the main character (Leah) and I seriously wanted to jump in the book and slap her for her stupidity and ridiculousness. Like, she's spent weeks... Months... with Noel by the point she finds out the 'grand reveal' and she knows him so how she could react the way she did?! It was mystifying. Nothing but drama for the sake of drama. It annoyed me so badly that I seriously wanted to scream. Not all books need something pulling the couple apart just so they can come back together again. You can have a drama free romance without it being boring, you know? But whatever. I loved this book with this one exception and I'll definitely be reading it again at some point.

A perfect book to read while curled up by the fire! Although, I'd read it at any time of the year. It's that wonderful! I'll definitely be reading more books by this author. A feel-good Christmas read.

I really enjoyed this, from the narrator’s humor, whether in thought or exchanges with Noel, to the great descriptions of the Christmas tree farm and village market. I wanted a bit more about the house...to feel her settling in there, as well as on the farm, but that was minor. Good relationship set up, didn’t move too fast but there was nice chemistry that kept building. Really enjoyable Christmas story, and definitely one I will reread. It was my first by this author and I will be looking for more.

When Leah buys a Christmas tree farm on line after a drunken night she can't quite believe what she has done....... she has spent all of the inheritance from her parents on a whim without even seeing it....... still it looks lovely in the pictures and there is a house although no pictures of that! Packing up and heading to Scotland in high spirits when she arrives she is devastated she now knows why there were no pictures of the house it is derelict and all the trees around it look dead! Looking around she meets the very grumpy and condescending (but definitely hot) neighbour Noel but as he seems to have all the knowledge she is really going to need his help!

Another lovely book by this author, very warm and the sort of book that draws you in from the first pages so that you really care about the characters. I loved all of the market traders and how they all looked out for each other and immediately accepted Leah into their circle. A book that you are sad to finish but a perfect book to get you in the mood for Christmas
