MERRY CHRISTMAS!!! As far as hallmarky Christmas reads go, this one was precious. A solid 3.5 ⭐️ from me, I love a good childhood friends to lovers even if it’s EXTREMELY predictable

Adorable holiday read! Love the little English village feel. The story was a bit predictable but just what you want in a Christmas romcom.

I’m happy I finally finished this. This just got a lower score the longer it went on. It’s too much, too long, too many descriptions about people that don’t matter, places, everything. Kates Mom sucked, first off. I liked the idea of 12 dates but the majority of these super long chapters weren’t even the dates! Half the dates had no conversation in them. This was so predictable but Kate’s feelings just happened so suddenly, she just woke up one day and she was in love. So unrealistic! Especially since her and Matt literally fight like immature children it’s ridiculous. What sparkle does he bring out?? The descriptions of the food and the scenery were nice but just wayyyy too much. I was bored and skimmed. I also find it annoying how Kate decides to leave this town which she loves with her best friends and family over a stupid fight.

Has Bridget Jones vibes, but not as good and way too long.

I found it to be entertaining. It was a bit of a bummer that I guessed who she was gonna end up with within 25% of the book.

The FMC does mention starting a family and having children just incase it's a concern.
