A part of me (probably the part of me who's given too much energy to commitment-phobic chronically ghosting men in the past) can't help feeling like Minnie shouldn't have given so much energy to Quinn, but you can read and decide for yourselves. Overall I enjoyed this book, and really appreciate the author's discussion questions and recipes at the back of the book.

i think aside from the little moments of the past, their love story isn’t a main part of the book. if you want that as the main focus, you won’t find that here and may dislike the book because of it. at first (a few chapters in), i wasn’t super into it and minnie was quite the pessimist but as it went on and you get to see her grow into herself and what she wants her life to be, it’s a good read about how life can go and the different sort of outlooks you can have.
i thought quinn was gonna be this stuck up rich guy but he turned into someone that really just had a hard deal of cards and was working through it the best he can. i wanted to just hug young quinn ugh
it was slowpaced in my opinion and i know some people don’t like that but i didn’t mind it too much. i feel like that’s just how life is some times but it spanned across a year and so it was written in a slow way but time moved fast sort of? if that makes sense?
anyway i liked this one and think maybe some people may not like it for reasons i’d understand but i just love a story and i got one with this.

⁕ The side characters in this book are absolute comedic gold, and the narration in the audiobook only added to their hilarity.
⁕ I didn’t really feel too much for Quinn one way or another, but Minnie’s character development was wonderfully written.
⁕ This book is advertised as a romantic contemporary, but I honestly think the relationship between Quinn and Minnie is more of a subplot that runs alongside them trying to sort out major financial and family conflicts. This isn’t a bad thing, just different from what I expected.

This was definitely a slow burn , closed-door romance with so many laughs but also some serious moments that really made you contemplate life. I really enjoyed this book and reading it while there's a snow storm just put me in the New Years mood.
So I really just have to ask, where do you want to be this time next year?
