i was skeptical about reading holiday romance books because they’re usually very cheesy and predictable (don’t get me wrong, i loveee cheesy and predictable but i just wasn’t in that mood)… but this was exactly the kind of book i wanted to read!

it was def hard to get into the first few chapters and i felt like it dragged on a bit at times. but i do understand that the story had to be that way to end how it did. that ending was so worth it given the journey the characters went throuvh

i’m also not the biggest fan of insta-love… but this book definitely executed it very well. i loved that it not only explored love, but also navigating friendships, dealing with loss and grief, and the reality of growing up.
