a very cute and quick holiday read. I loved Jonathan and Gabbys chemistry even though the so advertised enemies to lovers trope resolved into lovers a bit to fast for my own taste. Otherwise this was a nice fast read that really put me in the Christmas spirit. Also loved the demi-sexual and autism representation in the main character Gabriella. “And listen, I love myself for who I am, every part of me, the parts that fit easily in this world and the parts that don’t, but it’s a whole other thing to ask someone else to love me for all of those parts, too.” “My mom says there are countless kinds of love, and love enough for everyone. That love is an infinite resource whose expressions are just as innumerable.” "That’s when I prayed, because kissing you was water in a desert, sunlight breaking the horizon, and I was gone for you, no turning back.” “Do you know how lucky we are? That we found each other not once but twice?” 3,75 ⭐️
3.75 ⭐ “Just because you’re loving them differently than they love doesn’t make it any less loving. My mom says there are countless kinds of love, and love enough for everyone. That love is an infinite resource whose expressions are just as innumerable.” i've been wanting to read Chloe Liese's work, and i thought it'd be perfect to start with a seasonal, fast read to get to know her writing style, which, yes, i did like. it's a great transition into 2024 because this year, i want to read more of her novels. soo, about the book, it had great representation, and it was a quick, fun read. the chemistry and banter were were delightful, leaving me wanting more!
Such a cute holiday Novella providing all the good feels, the comfy kind of vibe and the setting that's just classically perfect. It's for sure no literary masterpiece but it does all it wants to do: the grumpy-grinch-sunshine arc, a sprinkle of hockey on top and christmas on the sides. Add a dash of demisexual and neurodivergent representation, include a character with a chronic health condition and voilà, it even does a whole lot more than the usual holiday romances. That it even swerves around the cliché 75% obstacles and includes characters who don't just get stupidly angry without for one second considering why their counterpart behaved as they did rounds it up to a perfect, cozy, holiday read for me. Giving stars where stars are due: 5/5.
