stitchesandstationery 's review for:

One Day in December by Josie Silver
4.5

Well, that was a rollercoaster. Not going to lie, I was stressed at more than one point by a lot of things, but it just kept me turning the pages. This is one of those books that could be read in 1.5 sittings if one weren't also addicted to phone games and Netflix, and it was perfectly cozy and adorable.

Pick this one up if you want a Christmas rom com that doesn't follow ~too~ many of the typical tropes, and makes you wonder if your own love life is up to snuff (it probably is, take a breath and drink a glass of wine).

I appreciated the extended timeline. None of this, "Oh we fell in love and two months later we're engaged" nonsense. Major bonus. And reading the two perspectives felt like I was talking to two different friends telling me their respective sides of the same story, and I loved that.
