The Holiday Treatment by Elle Spencer
3.0
DNF at 45%
I've been dying to read something by Elle Spencer for quite a while now, and I was so excited for the Hallmark-esque premise of this book, but sadly I feel the execution was a bit off. I didn't enjoy the main character's voice at all and I think a lot of the tongue-in-cheek jokes were a bit too try hard and instead came off a bit awkward. I might pick this up again next year because it did start off really promising, but for now I have so many other books I want to read than trying to trudge through this one!
Read for the 12 Days of Queermas Readathon!
Thanks to Netgalley and Bold Strokes Books for an e-ARC copy in return for an honest review!
