Many thanks to @dreamscape_media for the #gifted audiobook. 

 

I am a sucker for an adorably awkward book.  Especially a Christmas themed one.  

 

I love watching friends become lovers, particularly when they have the kind of off-the-charts chemistry that Stella and Luka have.  

 

The parts of the story where Luka and Stella are together… pure kismet. 

 

But the parts where Stella is in her head…constantly doubting, constantly overwhelmed…  those parts left me frustrated.  Stella stalled my love of her love story.  

 

I liked this one.  I really did.  Oh but Stella.  I could’ve adored it.  

 

🎧I listened to this one on audio.  And while the narration by Pippa Jayne was good, I wonder if it also accentuated my frustration with Stella.
