A review by elegantfantasy_blogs
Just for December by Laura Jane Williams

2.0

This book has such a cute cover and blurb and frankly that is why I'm giving this another star but the plot is medicore at it's best. The tropes and the Hollywood setting was good but I couldn't connect with the characters at all. Evie was just plain rude and impulsive which annoyed me. And the way things escalated so quickly which lead Evie & Duke to fake date was so unrealistic. I wanted to like this book but I just couldn't bring myself to enjoy it somehow. I know that some readers would love this book if you're a fan of the author's writing style but unfortunately this didn't work for me. I mean, it did have some cute moments and Duke was a different guy than the typical brooding heroes we get so read about. He loved reading romance books and just overall was a sensitive person who still stood up for the people he cared about. But as the book progressed, I started to skim through some pages because some conversations felt irrelevant and I couldn't figure out where they ended tbh.

I received an ARC from Netgalley in exchange of an honest review
