Good Elf Gone Wrong by Alina Jacobs
3.0
funny lighthearted medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

It is not this crazily well written book, with realistic scenes, BUT it was hella fun to read.

The characters annoyed me until about halfway through the book: Gracie had no backspine and was a pushover (which always infuriates me in books) and Hudson was constantly an assh*le whose actions were pissing me off.

But it gets better, there's character development for both of them; there's a little plot that creates a bit of drama; and there's quite a few funny scenes, especially with Grandma Murray. Give that women an award because she carried the whole comedy part of the book on her back.

It's a fun read, especially if you're looking for a holiday themed book. But this is NOT as cute and innocent as it look. Definitely not. 👀
