Ondanks de aangename schrijfstijl die maakte dat het erg vlot las, miste ik toch iets. Ik werd niet betoverd door het verhaal, zoals het bij vele anderen wel leek/lijkt te gebeuren.

This was very predictable, very corny and very enjoyable. I loved the Holidays-atmosphere and the bookstore-setting.
The ending felt a little bit over the top, but I liked it nevertheless.

I’ll write a more elaborate review soon.
