I feel like I say this in every review of her books, but Emma Smith just never misses!! Sat down and read this in one two hour sitting on Christmas Eve Eve, and now here I am SOBBING at 11:50pm LOL

Just wow- I was pretty much consistently tearing up from Part 2 onwards (yes I’m quite sensitive LMAO), the book is just so well written, and has perfect christmassy vibes! 

The characters were so well written, and I fully felt attached to Patrick and especially Abe by the end </3

“It's hugging your grandparents and kissing them on the cheek” - this hit HARD, that whole page I will probably say is my favourite quote(s) in the book for sure!

Another must read from Emma, each book keeps getting better, and I’m so proud of her 🫶
