Look, I’m not really a believer of the 10 years as just friends to lovers - but putting that aside, it’s a cozy lil romance in a small town with a cast of characters & a bunch of Xmas trees.
4.5 stars ⭐️ this book was everything and then some! I’ve been grumpy and unable to stomach most books I pick up, but this one, this one melted my little angry heart. Definitely worth it.
While it is a lovely, heartfelt story, the back and forth of the romance takes a bit too long. Did they ever really address why she snuck out in Maine? Once the crisis happens (80% in?), things tumble quickly to an easy resolution in Star’s Hollow, I mean Inglewyld (audiobook- sorry spelling!).
One issue though (and this is why I only gave 2 stars instead of 3)- authors (talking to you, white ones) REALLY need to choose their words carefully when trying to enable representation. Be consistent- if you keep drawing attention to FMC’s skin colour, why don’t you mention other characters’ skin colour? Checking off superficial boxes is not how representation works.
