I really enjoyed reading this book, it is a great Christmas book with a great story and great characters
It has a little Gilmore girls vibe so if you like that série you might enjoy the book, it is set in a small town where everyone knows everybody, one characters is a cafe owner just like in Gilmore girls and overall there is a little vibe
I find the idea of the 12 dates pretty good, it could have very quickly fallen into a repetitive cycle but I found it still enjoyable actually
However I hated the constant mention of sex throughout the book, there was nothing really explicit but I don’t like that she always mention how she wants to throw her pantie into whoever’s face
I thought it was going to be a basic 3 star, enjoyable but nothing amazing, but I was glad to see that I was wrong
At some point something starts to get obvious and I loved it, it got me way more into the story than I was, it is literally my favorite trop, I loved it
I was so happy with the ending
Some part were a bit cringe but it’s okay because the rest of the book is great
Overall it is a great Christmas story that, despite being more than 400 pages long is a pretty fast read and a great mix between the dates moments and her life.
I was so so so happy to see that the story turned into a childhood friends to lovers!
Honestly I was hoping that since chapter 2 but since Matt has a girlfriend I thought it wouldn’t be possible, but the more I read the more I got hopes and it happened !
I was scared of some possible outcome such as she get rejected because he loves Sarah (which it was obvious he loved Kate) or that she chooses to stay with Richard
Speaking about Richard, I knew he was bad news and I smelled the red flags, the thing that made me know he wasn’t a good person was when he was threatening that poor guy whose name I can’t remember, but Kate decided to give him another chance, she shouldn’t have because well man was married
I love Drew also! A bit cliché but he is cool
