The Holiday Swap by Maggie Knox
3.0
If you're looking for a Christmas Hallmark movie in book form, this might be it.
The plot is quite simple. It reminded me a lot of The Holiday, where two people switch places and get involved with the people the other deals with normally. Though now we deal with twins. The characters aren't that complicated and it's all quite superficial. Issues that occur aren't really addressed but just brushed past, which to me it feels like going deeper into the problems in the story could've given the story a lot more depth.
It wasn't the worst, and for a cozy christmas read it works, but it didn't fulfill me.
