Received from #libro.fm. Cute holiday rom com with a twist on the fake dating trope. Also explores narcissistic partners and emotional abuse. Mostly 3 dimensional characters and amusing predicaments. It was a fun diversion during this winter season.

It's cute, I guess? Very Hallmark Christmas movie, though that's not inherently a bad thing (especially since that's pretty much what it says it is on the tin anyway). My biggest annoyance was actually that Ellie was kind of an asshole. Also, that I'm not sure Margot was even remotely ready to be in another relationship after all the Taylor stuff, but details. I do appreciate the Taylor stuff, btw. It needs to be talked about more, so points for including it and not having it get brushed under the rug at any point.
