Really enjoyed this read and picked up some helpful tips for conquering different things. I've loved her instagram for ages and love her activities!
This was charming! I laughed a lot, yelled SAME many times and enjoyed the comics and anecdotes throughout.
THIS WAS SWEET.

A good young adult holiday romance. It’s a super fast read and bingeable if you’re in the mood for it. I was worried that I wouldn’t like the main character at all, but gave her a chance for growth and it was well received. I thought Mimi was a quintessential teen that caused a few eye rolls, and gratefully a few cheers. I love character growth in books!
I struggled with the way the love triangle was handled. I’m not even sure it was necessary? Or at least to the extent it was drawn out (this is my second book by this author with a love triangle, is this a bad sign?). The friends to lovers was really sweet and I wanted all of the focus on those quiet moments between Mimi and Jason. Jason was a gem.
The Christmas season was in full swing and I love a good snow setting (that I don’t physically have to participate in). The side characters were charming and I love a good group of friends. Things get a bit dramatic at times. I’m not upset with this for a holiday romance though, it’d be one to consider for your TBR.
Overall audience notes:
- YA Contemporary Romance
- Language: very little
- Romance: kisses
- Violence: head injury from sledding
- Trigger/Content Warnings: loss of a parent, depictions of grief

ADORED.

This was such a good read!! It’s a super short fantasy (under 300 pages) and I felt wrapped up in it and loving all of the characters. It’s wholesome and whimsical. All the things I could have hoped for when I picked it up.
It’s a pretty classic YA fantasy (but the characters felt older, so probably closer to NA). Our heroine lands in an unknown land and finds herself on an adventure with a rag-tag group of people while she learns about everything around her. I adored the sweetly paced romance that for fast-paced didn’t bother me for a moment. Jarrett and Talia were just precious.
I liked the plot line and outer story of the magic system and world building. It could have been even further expanded, but I didn’t feel that was the nature of this book which led me to just want to devour it and anxiously await the next installment. I love the way Ryckman writes her stories and I’ve enjoyed everyone I’ve read!
Overall audience notes:
- NA Fantasy
- Language: none
- Romance: kisses
- Violence: physical and magical altercations, near death experiences

This was a great novella! I love a good snowed-in read and thought the banter had some good angst. I enjoyed both characters though occasionally got frustrated with Lou. And suuuper appreciated a realistic ending for such a short timeline. Brought everything together at the end.
I look forward to the next novel that's full length!
