This book was super cute! I absolutely loved the setting of a family-owned bookstore and how the plot centered around saving it. It was so cool to see how everyone came together to fight for something that mattered!

I loved the way the romance between Ariel and Trey developed, though if I had one complaint it would be that Trey took a LONG time to break up with his girlfriend. I don’t generally love when that happens in books.

All in all, though, a super heartwarming story perfect for the holidays!

Thank you to Soho Teen and NetGalley for the audio ARC of this book!
