4.25 ⭐ “The best revenge is making peace with a past you can’t change and figuring out how to make the future a happier place for yourself to live in. That’s how you come out on top.” so silly, i loved it. i fell in love with Sarah Hogle's writing this year, and i was super scared i wouldn't like this because of the reviews and it's a christmas novel. the message behind this was so good, and it felt like i knew the characters well, even though i didn't like some of them.
