This was adorable and sweet and a lovely holiday seasonal read that I'm glad I was finally able to read. The narrator did a great job. However, let me just say that I didn't expect to hit somewhere around like 85% and be so angry I wanted to strangle some side characters. Like woo, the rage that overtook me and hasn't gone away yet.

I feel that if you want to read this and have any triggers around emotionally, and mentally, abusive and manipulative parents/guardians or toxic parenting, especially when dropped unexpectedly during a cozy read, to maybe avoid it. Cause I don't have triggers around that and the anger that overtook me was powerful.
