I fell into 12 Months of Romance/ 24 Reasons to Love: A Holiday Anthology like you would normally fall into a well-loved routine.
This is the first time that I’ve experienced most of these authors, and I have to say that I’ve become a fan with the slight taste that I had.
It was refreshing to have such a book. Most anthologies don’t succeed – in my opinion because sometimes I don’t feel that the authors mesh. And that’s MY opinion, from experience. I’ve had to skip a few stories in the past because they just weren’t the right feel or taste for me.
But with this book (anthology), I actually liked it. I felt every story deeply. In one way or another. Whether it was through the characters that are being portrayed, or the storyline that is being told by each individual author.
I loved the fact that I was able to experience different stories, with different holidays. And let’s not forget about the romance that you experience in every single one of the books. The chemistry that you feel as a reader, and the relationships that are developed. I loved experiencing new things and reading new styles. And that is exactly what I got with this.
It’s definitely a keeper for me, with most of those authors - seeing as I’ll more than likely be stalking some of them. Sometimes, it’s nice to be able to get lost multiple times within ONE book just because you are able to. This book was a 5 Star Review – I couldn’t for the life of me go lower, because even though there were some books that I didn’t absolutely love; the majority of them won.
