I unfortunately did not enjoy this. I don’t remember particularly enjoying book one but I had hopes for book two.

I wish I liked this book more, since I liked Lana in The Tourist Attractionand Rick was a sweet main character. But unfortunately, I found the book to be really boring and tough to finish. The chemistry was a little bit flat between Lana and Rick, and the conflict felt really low stakes and not engaging.

Mistletoe & Mr. Right by Sarah Morgenthaler
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
“Isn’t it better to have one or two of the right ones instead of a hundred wrong ones?”
This book is adorable and super cozy! The characters are well-written and I can completely picture Moose Springs. I love Lana and Rick so much. Rick could honestly be my dream guy. I need him in real life! I also really appreciated Lana in this book. She was a strong businesswoman who was determined to see her project through and capture the Santa Moose even when no one else seemed to believe in her. Lana cares deeply about people and I think that her and Rick are a perfect match. Okay now onto the tropes. The holiday season is meant for romantic comedies and tropes…let me tell you…Mistletoe & Mr. Right is full of them. We’re talking only one bed, forced proximity, friends to lovers, ALL OF IT! There were moments that literally made me laugh out loud!! This was a super cute read and it was perfect to kick off cozy rom-com season. I am super excited to read the third book in the series! To everyone complaining about this book being a Hallmark movie…please stop. We know it’s a Hallmark movie and that’s why we read it😂
If you love cheesy holiday romance, then this is for you!

First of all, I just am a sucker for this series, ok?!? I love the light, silly, fun writing and the plot elements are ridiculously adorable. The romances make me smile and swoon. However, my darling Caitlin had some v v v astute criticisms of the first book, and I think it opened my eyes to some of the issues in this one. I did not vibe with Lana at all in the first book, and while I liked her A LOT more in this one, I felt like it was a little bit of a jarring about face for her character. Rick though? I love me some Rick. And Rick's love for Lana made me like her more. There were some problems I could not overlook though, like fatphobia and healthism, as well as framing a female ex as crazy. Do not enjoy, no ma'am. Also stop with the word slender. Do you KNOW any other adjectives???????
