Okay so you’ve seen the cinematic masterpiece “The Holiday” starring Kate Winslet and Cameron Diaz? This is that, but gay. It was fun and fluffy and really sweet but not unique, but points for gay AND lesbian rep with the swapped parties. I did not love the lesbian love interest and parts of that felt kinda toxic at times but the overall community and found family aspects were wonderful and finding your home in unexpected people & places will always tug at my heart strings.

A new holiday favourite. I would love to see this adapted into a movie. Can totally see myself rereading this around Christmas next year

Longish for such a thing, but satisfying. Part of the romance genre that includes relationship coaching, but also has a couple on page steamy sex scenes. Mature Queer relationships! Good times.

This wasn’t a bad book it just seemed like it would be a holiday book to get my in the spirit based on the title and cover but it really had very little to do with the holidays
