This is a LOVELY seasonal read about a first year undergrad who tries to escape her heartbreak by taking an internship at the Smithsonian for the winter holidays. Instead, she vibes with the daughter of the local weather man and they walk his corgi around DC in the snow. It’s the subplot line missing from the TV series bones. Queer Jewish joy. Predictable but touching. Perfect festive read.
Be warned that it is marketed as enemies to lovers but it doesn’t do that.
