A review by zoe2088
Meet me under the Mistletoe by Carla Burgess

3.0

I liked the characters, although I did find Rachel a little unbearable when she first met Anthony. She was OTT and a little grating but she grew on me. She was funny, kind, caring and full of love for everyone. The chemistry between them was very full on and intense. Anthony was a true gent, with polite manners and old fashioned ways. I liked him, although he was a bit untruthful to begin with.

The big thing I liked about this book is that we see how the characters from two books that the author has also written, Stuck With You (Elena and Daniel) and Marry Me Tomorrow (Emily and Sam). I thought it was a fantastic little touch.

The writing style in this book is easy to follow, with no complicated character connections or unnecessary dialogue. It flowed smoothly and was a nice, quick read. I read in just over a day and I’m pleased it was a short book. it wouldn’t have worked any better as a longer book.

What I did find a little irritating, and what’s made me mark the book down is the beginning of it. I really didn’t like the beginning of it. With how quickly Rachel and Anthony got involved kind of bugs me… It wasn’t really an ideal beginning but I’m glad the rest of the book wasn’t so forced.
