It‘s been a while since I read something not in Litsy‘s database, but tonight‘s treelight read is mysteriously absent. I‘ve filed it under another book with the same setting.
A GIFT-WRAPPED HOLIDAY has great reviews on Kobo, so I didn‘t hesitate to shell out $0.89 for it. Alas, while it isn‘t bad, it ain‘t as sparkly as I thought it‘d be. Sadness. Maybe things‘ll click for me in the last 2/3.
so-soSweet romance. Would be a perfectly good “beach read”. Didn‘t sweep me away…
It snowed again this morning! So it seems like a great day to start this one! 🩵❄️🩵 This is the last holiday romance book I'm trying to squeeze in before Christmas next week!
pickThis was a cute friends-to-lovers Christmas romance. Will and Abbie have both been harboring feelings for the other for years but finally Will is going to do something about it. I liked both characters but wished they were more honest from the start, it was a little frustrating watching them both hide their feelings, worrying they would scare the other one off. I loved the quirky grandma and her cats 🐈
pickA sweet quick read graphic novel about baking and romance. Igor liked it too 🐱🩵
pickThis was a sweet little book, with a heap of snowy romance and just enough cuteness. It did fall on the wrong side of too many misunderstandings, but you can see why they happen. Both MCs have a lot of baggage, but they manage to battle through it—with help from each other, of course. The serious themes of homophobia, foster care, and the scars we grow up with all helped keep the book from being too twee, and were handled with delicacy and care.
