madeline 's review for:
The Holiday Switch
by Tif Marcelo
lighthearted
medium-paced
A cute premise is let down by some tenuous plot points and unrefined writing, but ultimately keeps the holiday cheer. Even for being a YA novel, the characters seem very young, and I'm just not ready to accept that Lila's parents were doxxed after a tree branch fell on their business and neighbors suspected they'd done it for insurance money. Surely there were easier ways to make them protective of her time on the internet?
Still, we love a heroine with a book blog, a love interest who's super into bouldering is new to me, and I do love that their town is an homage to a Christmas movie filmed there.
Thank you Random House & NetGalley for the ARC!
