Despite its brevity, this was tough to get through. A lot of awkward dialogue and zero chemistry between the two romantic leads

Sentimientos encontrados con este pequeño relato. No sabía que esta historia estaba enmarcada en la pandemia que estamos viviendo actualmente... Y la verdad, leer sobre la pandemia en tiempos de pandemia, no ha sido mi cosa favorita, de ahí las tres estrellas.
Por otro lado, me encanta la mini historia de amor, digna de comedia romántica que si te gusta el cliché, lo vas a apreciar. También me he visto representada en esos protagonistasen guerra con su familia por la forma en que cada uno se ha tomado la pandemia, me ha pasado eso de verme juzgada por algunos familiares por tomar medidas "de más".
No había leído nada de Rainbow Rowell hasta la fecha y es algo que volveré a hacer seguro porque me ha gustado mucho su forma de escribir.

Short story. Made me think about covid and it’s implications. Made me feel less alone with my feelings which is always lovely. Not much story progression or character development, but this is expected in a short story so was okay.

This is a really cute story, and much more heartwarming than I had expected given that it's set firmly in the middle of the COVID pandemic. I loved getting to see more of Reagan—she was my favorite character in <i>Fangirl</i>—and the romance part of the story was very sweet. (Nothing more than kissing, but given COVID... that's plenty.)

There is a very nice little budding romance in here, but the main feeling is one of anxiety over the COVID pandemic. I understand that anxiety very well, but for a Christmas story I would have liked less of that and more of the feelgood elements.
