If you're looking for a quick holiday read with great diversity rep where all the character's stories are separate but intertwined and come together in the end. This is it!

A quick read, but I really enjoyed how all of the stories connected in this. It really focuses on relationships and friendships, and how people can come back together. It will be a great read to have for the Christmas season, even though it's not 100% about Christmas. It's still featured throughout!
I listened to the audio for this one, and what I liked is that you don't necessarily know which author is writing what until the afterward at the end. If you know teen books and the author contributors, the clues are a fun way to figure out who writes what aspects of the book.
If you liked Blackout and you enjoy interconnected stories, you'll definitely love this collection.

So good! Perfect for fans of Blackout and Let It Snow — I liked it even better than those — and interconnected stories that work together to tell a story of friendship and holiday love.
