I listened to this at 1x speed and I think the audio narrators did a fantastic job. I especially enjoyed the female narrator, I really enjoyed the way she did different voices.
Personally, I don't like Love Actually all that much but I just couldn't resist a Latinx twist. I'm so so glad I gave this a chance! These stories are much more progressive and of course all get happily ever afters. I can see myself coming back to listen to this every year. I highly recommend it to all romance readers.
Some of my favorites included:
- Make The Yuletide Gay by Adriana Herrera. I mean, if she writes it, I'm gonna read it. She consistently writes main characters that I feel so invested in. Because seriously, I don't think I'd normally be all that interested in a story about an older pop star. But Adriana managed to have me fully invested in Viviana and Layla finding their happily ever after.
- Meet Me Under the Mistletoe by Priscilla Oliveras. This was just really cute and sweet
- To Us, You Are Perfect by Adriana Herrera and Alexis Daria. I always thought the the posterboards thing in Love Actually was so weird and not romantic at all. But it is perfect in this story! I love the twist they gave this story.
Thanks to Dreamscape Media, the authors, and NetGalley for the advance copy in exchange for my honest review.
