Most Wonderful by Georgia Clark
5.0

I love and admire Georgia Clark’s writing and Most Wonderful was no exception. This light but yet complex Christmas read had everything I needed to get in the holiday spirit. Three siblings, their larger than life mother, and their ever-evolving romantic relationships.

I absolutely adored all the characters. Liz, Rafi and Birdie all have their own challenges this holiday season, both in their love life and out of it. I loved how the character’s each had their own storyline and that their respective love interests felt like fully fleshed out people. Even though this is a cheerful, optimistic story, Clark didn’t shy away from showcasing realities of life and how they might affect how people approach making important life decisions and react to challenges in relationships. Family illness, miscarriage, complex parental relationships, alcohol abuse and divorce are all discussed during this story in a meaningful way that doesn’t detract from the overall holiday cheer.

This was truly an ambitious book and Most Wonderful sticked the landing. Be sure to preorder this book now and add it to your TBR for this upcoming winter season. Thanks to the author, NetGalley and Dial press for the ARC.
