THE GOOD: This was my favourite book in the series so far. I liked the flashbacks to the past. Sloane and Jasper's banter was *chef's kiss* and I laughed out loud a lot. I love the bond between Summer, Willa, Sloane, and Winter. And Harvey is the best. I also loved the Christmas vibes in the last part of the book. I'm not ready for the end of this series and can't believe I'm on the second-to-last book and that the next book doesn't come out until September!
THE BAD: I don't like that Elsie Silver writes her male characters to be domineering. It gives me the ick. Also, this series is set in Canada and I wish more of the setting was incorporated into the story. I feel like the settings in books are a lot more descriptive when they're set in the U.S. And the way Sloane's dad spoke to her in the last few chapters was cringey and condescending and, again, gave me the ick.
