I told myself that I wouldn’t cave to the onslaught of holiday themed books this year, as they usually end up being good… but not great reads - just filler and ambience. Which is great, but this year the many acclaimed books on my TBR are calling to me something FIERCE.
Alas, the chatter about this back list title, Ten Blind Dates, was too adorable to resist! Especially when it was available on my library’s shelves. And I’m glad I caved. Sure, the happy ending was entirely predictable from the jump and the plot was far fetched, but the big family dynamics and cute banter  won me over, as well as the Louisiana details that gave such a great sense of place.
If you are looking for a cozy, feel good book to read in a day, this definitely fit the bill for me!
