So, looking at my notes my first thought was 'Oh wow! This feels like a Gilmore Girls episode' definitely Lorelai and Luke vibes.
After Chapter 2 it started to seem like those Christmas movies, all pretty much the same just with different covers. I'm not saying it was bad, otherwise I would have stopped reading, but I didn't find myself particularly attached to the characters. Idk, maybe I got to the point where I prefer to watch this type of romance rather than read about it. 

Oh and I'm not sure why, but whenever the mmc is mentioned I got reminded of Cal Maddox from Sweet Magnolias played by Justin Bruening 😆
