4.5
adventurous lighthearted
Plot or Character Driven: A mix

Loved and absolutely inhaled this book! I'm not sure what happened to me but I read most of it in a day (which hasn't happened since I read Sunrise on the Reaping... very different vibes lol). Just reading the premise of this book had me thinking it would be my favourite of India Holton's novels, and it fulfilled my hopes easily!! The tropes were troping in the best possible way and I experienced a stupid amount of joy every time I recognised a little nod to Anne Of Green Gables 🥰 Elodie was a delight, Gabriel hilariously curmudgeonly, and their miscommunication (perhaps better described as misinterpretation) was the perfect level of frustrating-yet-juicy.
