My True Love Gave to Me: Twelve Winter Romances by Stephanie Perkins
4.0
Delightful!
Some stories I loved - Rowell, Perkins, Han, Link. I loved all four of these stories, and they were all very different to each other. My favourites.
Some stories I liked, and were pleasant to read - Carter, de la Pena, Forman, White, Taylor.
Some fell a little flat for me - Black and McEntire I had to fight to finish. Neither had particularly strong storylines. I skipped Levithan as the last book I read by him (Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist) I was left incredibly disappointed by, so I wasn't in the mood for him.
All in all a really nice collection. Obviously not every story will please all, but I think there's something for everyone.
It was really nice to read a snippet of writing by authors I'd been meaning to read, to get a feel for their writing styles, and to see some new work from authors I already loved (Rowell, Han).
