In a Holidaze by Christina Lauren
3.0

Thank you to the publisher for giving me a free copy of this book! All opinions are my own.

I checked off my first holiday read of the season! I thought I was going to love this one just based on the cover, but it was middle of the road for me. I will say that I went into this completely blind, so I had no idea that time travel was a big part of the plot!

I think the middle of the book was my favorite bit, when it focused more on the romance, but then I was less invested in the beginning and the end. I wondered about the time travel plot line and if it was really needed and how much it added to the story. I did love the cozy wintry setting and the descriptions of the Christmas traditions that these families have been doing for decades. Overall, I thought this was cute, but it didn’t charm me as much as I hoped it would.
