Update #1 (12/28/20):
I started a little late this year but I'm glad I finished this around the Christmas season at least lol. Julie and Stuart are still the best, and I sort of skimmed the second/third ones. Which is basically what I did last year but whatever lol, the first one is always gonna be my favorite, probably bc I like the characters the most?? And I really like her writing style
Original (12/9/20):
A cute, cheesy Christmasy read! I’m so glad I waited until December to read this (I’ve had it for a while) - it rly added to the holiday vibe if you know what I mean lol
I rly rly rly liked the first story - I wouldn’t have minded if the whole book was just focused on Jubilee and Stuart. The second story was a little slow at times, but the best friends to lovers trope is literally my favorite of all time so that made up for any slowness. The third story was okay, I guess? I didn’t really like addie so I guess that’s why lol (she reminded me SO MUCH of addy from One of Us is Lying even tho ik this came out first but still like the whole hair deal happened to both of them after they went through a breakup)
Maybe I’ll make this like a tradition and read it every year lol I saw there was a Netflix movie but it looks SUPER inaccurate from the trailer so we’ll see
