Mind the Gap, Dash & Lily
Mind the Gap, Dash & Lily | David Levithan, Rachel Cohn
19 posts | 19 read | 5 to read
Timed to the release of DASH AND LILY on Netflix comes a new helping of love--this time across the pond as best-selling authors Rachel Cohn and David Levithan send Dash and Lily to jolly old England. Dash and Lily are feeling closer than ever...it's just too bad they're also an ocean apart. After Dash gets accepted to Oxford University and Lily stays in New York to take care of her dogwalking business, the inseparable couple are struggling to make a long distance relationship work. And when Dash breaks the news that he won't be coming home to New York for Christmas, Lily makes a decision: if Dash can't come to New York, she'll go to London. But will Lily pull off the ultimate surprise--or will Christmas in London backfire?

First book finished in 2023!

Christmas is Lily's favorite holiday, so for their 3rd Christmas together, Lily travels to England where Dash is attending Oxford. She wants to make it magical for Dash since he's not at home in New York with family. When she shows up unannounced, she thinks perhaps she's made a mistake, as they seem to be out of sync.

(I hope using a book for more than one challenge is ok, or I'll never get remotely close to completing all 11 challenges I'm participating in this year 😬🤣 If it's not ok, just let me know and I will rearrange my plans 😊)

CoffeeNBooks And I thought I edited it to fix #2023ReadySetRead, but apparently auto-correct knows better. 🙄 2y

I would read about these two forever. Their coming of age moments are so good, and I love how they always factor each other into their plans without being Obsessive Teenagers about it. #yalit #christmasfiction

In this 3rd in the series, Dash & Lily have graduated and are making plans for their futures. This time we follow their adventures through London. I don‘t know if the authors have more planned but I‘d follow them anywhere. This was my #BookSpin and I listened to it on audio.

TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!! 3y

🧡 I managed 6 bingos in February thanks to several short stories. I read my #DoubleSpin book but not my #BookSpin book. I moved it (and the other 5 books I didn‘t get to) to my March list. 🍀
3 of the bingos came while I was reading for #20in4.

If the Netflix show is book 1, this is book 3, and each one is Christmas themed. Dash has been at Oxford and Lily comes for a visit, and...not a lot happens. Conflict is pretty minimal, and I'm not sure there was a lot there - there are friends and quirky relatives, dogs and winter scenes, and of course at least one bookstore. Nice to have two narrators in audio because it goes by quickly, and was a rom-com ending to my winter vacation.

I enjoyed the Netflix miniseries more than this book (third in series—first two installments weren't available for me to borrow on audio when I needed a fluffy infusion). That's unusual (but OK)!

I liked this one more than the 2nd. The title couple are in London. Dash is having an existential crisis, but he‘s also become close with his grandma, Gem. He‘s a student at Oxford & finds that reality doesn‘t always live up to the fantasy. Lily is successful in her dog walking business but her family doubts her future plan. I love how they stay true to themselves & each other as they navigate the hurdles of growing up. A sweet holiday treat.

This book was a lot better then the second book that I read yesterday. Dash and Lily have graduated high school. Lily has decided to take a gap year and Dash is going to London to study at Oxford. When Lily finds out Dash isn‘t coming home to NYC for Christmas she is sad and doesn‘t want to spend Christmas without him. So she decides to take a trip to London. Will the trip to London bring them back together or tear them apart.

I'm not one to rush the holidays. I don't listen to Christmas music, until after Thanksgiving. Same with Christmas movies and books. But with 2020 being what it is and this coming out on Election Day, I thought it would make a nice distraction. Plus Dash and Lily premiers November 10th on Netflix. I decided to make an exception. Glad I did. It was delightful! ⬇️

Crinoline_Laphroaig Yes the vibe was a little different but Dash and Lily are adults now. There should be change. But at its heart it still has the same charm. Also I'm willing to suspend belief at how so many original characters ended up in London and how Lily managed Claridge's. It's a Christmas book! It doesn't have to be realistic. 🎄🎅🎁🇬🇧♥️ 4y
