Loved this!!  The holiday atmosphere and the small town vibes made this such an enjoyable read.  Worth the hype for sure.

I wasnā€™t sure if Iā€™d like Matthew or not, the spoiled rich kid usually is an ick for me but this was written so well.  He was a well detailed character and had depth to his personality.  The character development was so pleasant to read.

This was such a cute holiday rom-com!

This was a fun holiday read! I felt the characters had lots of layers and that you really got to know the town dynamic and the supporting characters as well. Iā€™m always a sucker for enemies to lovers and I also really appreciated the generalized anxiety disorder and therapy representation. This book adds some much needed differing perspective to the holiday romance genre and I think thatā€™s great. What I didnā€™t love: Some of the dialogue felt a bit forced, and I could not handle all the ā€œdudeā€ repetitiveness (even though itā€™s called out as an aspect of that characterā€™s personality, it really took me out of the story after awhile). That said, thereā€™s a lot to like in this one!

Well, I'll be darned if the small-town romance didn't thaw my stone-cold heart and make it grow three sizes. 5 stars. Only cause I'm feeling sappy.

Aus der Reihe: Titel, die ich als Deutsche nicht verstehe, aber trotzdem das Buch lese, weil es wie Schitt's Creek sein soll

* Scheinbar ist der Titel eine Anspielung auf ein Lied Ć¼ber den Grinch. Damit seid ihr besser ausgerĆ¼stet, als ich.

___

Fazit: 45 % Schitty, 100 % queer and fabulous

Die zwei Kritikpunkte, die ich habe, ist, dass stellenweise einfach gar nix passiert, und ich ganze Seiten Ć¼berspringen konnte, ohne was zu verpassen, und dass Hector und Matthew sich viel zu schnell miteinander verbĆ¼nden. Von mir aus hƤtten sie sich ein bisschen lƤnger bekriegen kƶnnen.
___
Queer-Rating: m/m, bi und schwul, keine Queerenfeindlichkeit, Nebencharaktere sind lesbisch und trans

Dieses Buch enthƤlt: Enemy to Lover, erzwungene NƤhe, Grovel, 

Alter der Protagonisten: Beide sind 21

Content Note: Matthew hat GAD und regelmƤƟig Panik- und Angstattacken, Fehlgeburt wird erwƤhnt, Scheidung
