It’s a charming and uplifting read, perfect for fans of cozy, feel-good Christmas stories.
My Thoughts: The novella was a delightful and cozy holiday read with lovable characters. As with most Christmas books and movies, it was a little cheesy which I appreciated. It had it’s charm and I really enjoyed that it centred around books and book lovers and Christmas enthusiasts alike. I appreciated the warmth, humour, and festive spirit which made it a perfect escape during the holiday season. While it’s a light, quick read, it beautifully captures the joy of books, friendship, and the magic of Christmas.
