Really enjoyed this book. All the characters were extremely well thought out. They were complex and I could understand the motivations behind their actions. This is especially impressive because the story is done in 1st person though only Coal's perspective. The world building was also wonderful. It was interesting, complex but easy to follow, and really brought you into the world. And who doesn't love a good holiday story. I laughed, I giggled, I raged, and I tried not to cry. Overall, a really fun and well written read.
