☆ christmas lover x christmas hater 

I loved this book so, so much! I instantly fell in love with both Rora and Henry. 
This was everything I wanted in a fun, Christmas novella and is probably going to be added in to my yearly rotation of Christmas books!
Actually kind of sad that this wasn’t a full length novel because I love all the characters so much and just wanted to keep reading about them.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for the opportunity to read and review this book before release.

This was my first time reading anything from Alexis Daria and it definitely won’t be the last. I’ve been hearing good things about her over the last few months so I went into this pretty high expectations and was not disappointed at all. 
I loved everything about this and really wish this was a full length novel!

Oh my god, I truly with this was longer. I loved every second of this. I’m obsessed with Everleigh and Griffin. They had so much chemistry. 
The pacing of this was also really great! Even though it was a short story it didn’t feel like they were rushed at all.

I really wasn’t vibing with this one which is a shame because I usually like Olivia Dade’s books. 
The main characters just didn’t hit for me. I didn’t like that a “funny little quirk” about Nina was that she is always speeding. I don’t find that funny at all. 
William is just kind of bland. Both of them are really. 
I think this one just wasn’t for me.

I’ve read over 20 Tessa Bailey books at this point and they just keep getting better and better. 
I instantly fell in love with Evie and Luke. 
I really wish this was a full novel because I wanted more!

I absolutely adored this story. I’ve been a fan of Ali Hazelwood for years and she never disappoints. 
A very cute enemies to lovers with childhood flashbacks that make you love the characters more and more with each page.
