Let it Snow
by John Green, Maureen Johnson, Lauren Myracle
I enjoyed this book. It is the perfect read for the holiday season if you're looking for typical YA romance.
Of course, I had to keep in mind that it was indeed YA... So many of the main characters were very incredibly naive and there was some insta-love going on.
I really liked the way that each of the three stories overlapped- which I didn't know was going to happen when I started reading. I enjoyed each storyline of the three stories as well as the overarching storyline that linked them all together. I also really liked most of the characters, even though many of them made some very sketchy choices and were far too trusting...
The first story by Maureen Johnson was my absolute favorite of the three. This story did a wonderful job of creating the setting for the next two. I LOVED the characters in this story so much, I would have happily read a full book to get to know all of these characters more!
My second favorite was the second story by John Green. This story was fun, but I didn't care for the characters as much as the first.
The third story was a bit rough for me because I really disliked the main characters personality. This character was the stereotypical self-centered girl that we all knew in high school.... The story was still enjoyable, even though it was quite repetitive. The ending, where everything comes together was really great.
Overall, I would definitely recommend this to someone looking for a quick holiday YA romance read.
Favorite passages:
From Book 1-
Debbie had to get up and slice me a thick piece of cake before she could answer. And I do mean thick. Harry Potter volume seven thick. I could have knocked out a burglar with this piece of cake. Once I tasted it, though, it seemed just the right size. Debbie didn't fool around when it came to the butter and sugar.
From Book 2-
Once you think a thought, it is extremely difficult to unthink it. And I had thought the thought.
I could have kept going forever, but finally, through the kiss, she said, "I actually really do want my hash browns," and so I opened the door and she ducked beneath my arm and we ate dinner at three a.m.
