Hannah and Finn met in college arms spent a magical Christmas together as the only people left on campus. They became the best of friends and eventually added Priya and Theo to their club. Fancy Christmas, dive bar Christmas, awkward family Christmas, until finally, the last Christmas as Finn is moving away.

This is ultimately a story about learning to grieve loss and how magical friendship can be. It's a good story, but was ultimately kind of slow and didn't wow me.
