Vorsicht, Sternschnuppe by Jae

banrions's review against another edition

This was a nice romance. I was under the impression that it had a bit more to do with a Christmas/the holidays from the description, but it really doesn’t at all. I never quite connected with Dee too much, and found her personality grating and grumpiness a bit too much for me personally. She did get better when she was with Austen, but it just never clicked in the way I wanted it to. It was enjoyable, but I find that Jae’s books for me are either solidly in the “this was okay and I mostly liked it” camp or I love them. This was one of the former, for me.

I’ve read a couple of Jae's books now and enjoyed them all so I had a feeling I would like this one as well. I love Jae's writing, something about it just pulls you in and makes it almost impossible to stop reading. Even when I had to stop reading to do other things I couldn’t stop thinking about this book and what would happen next.

I really loved both characters and the character development through the story was great. I loved that through their relationship they communicated with each other, I feel like in so many books a lot of the couples just don’t tell each other things and it makes me super annoyed. So kudos for writing a couple with healthy communication skills.

I really liked everything about this book, I honestly can’t think of one single thing I disliked. When I read the description I thought this was gonna be like a full Christmas story kind of thing which was what I was looking for, but I wasn’t disappointed at all when it turned out not to be.

I’ll definitely recommend reading this book if you’re looking for just a cute, holiday-ish read, with not to much angst and just the right amount of steamy scenes.

After reading this I’m definitely gonna put Jae's other books higher on my “to be read list”. I can’t wait to see what more she has in store.

The perfect Christmas romance novel which runs from one Christmas through a year to the one after.

I liked the beginning of the story, it was fun and there was great banter, but then the plot petered out.
The MCs have a great chemistry!
I would have loved to know a bit more about Dee's family and how it evolved in the epilogue though.

An entertaining workplace romance with likeable characters. The disrespect and misogyny in Dee's family was a bit of a put off and it would have been nice if it got resolved or improved in any way by the end but it didn't. Abby Craden's narration was enjoyable as always.
