From the author of the smash hit Netflix romcom The Kissing Booth! Eloise, a self-confessed Christmas obsessive, cant wait for the big day. Devoted to her Michael Bubl playlist, shes organising the school nativity play and even her gorgeous Grinch of a neighbour, James, cant get her down.Her workaholic twin sister, Cara, on the other hand, plans to work over the holiday and figure out what secrets her seemingly-perfect boyfriend George might be keeping from her.The sisters used to be close but since Cara moved to London, everythings been different. Only, Eloise isnt giving up just yet, and with a white Christmas on the cards, Cara cant fail to be moved by the magic of the season can she.

I gotta say that my opinion about this book is all over the place, because Im liking this book but at the same time disliking it. All I can say is that this review might be quite a wild ride of opinions which may cross each other. But lets see where the review takes us.

I need to give this book for being sort of cute and fun to read when you don’t give this book a lot of thoughts or look to closely at it. 

This book has a good premise for the plot but at the same time the way this book is written doesn’t present the plot very well. Which really sucks because this book could have been very good if the author gave us the plot in a other way than what we got. 

This book doesn’t have a lot of the Christmas spirit other than the fact that it mentions Christmas eve and Christmas plans and gifts a few time throughout this book. This book feels more like its about twin sister growing apart from each other when they grow up into being adults rather than the spirit of Christmas. Of course it could just be me and my impression of this book after reading it but again every review written is very personally to the person writing the review. 

The characters here are very average characters, where you don’t remember them when you finish the book. The two main characters are twins and their names are Eloise and Cara. And all I can tell you about them is that Cara lives in London and Eloise is a teacher not in London. And thats pretty much what I remember about them. Both of them are very shallow characters and are very typical YA Christmas book characters where Eloise is the Christmas obsessed sibling and Cara is more of a Scooge type. 

As for the rest of the characters, I remember even less about them than what I remember about the town main characters. Both of the sisters have guys they are dating or at the very least involved with, but what their names are I simply cant tell you that. Because it went into my head and went straight out of it because of how flat and shallow characters they were. 

The writing style in this book is very typical of YA which means that it is very simple and easy to read. It plays well with the plot of this book but at the same time I wasn’t a fan of the writing style. 

To be very honest here this book was a very average and quick Christmas book which seems like the author didn’t put a lot of effort and time into writing this book. But at this point of being 5 years into reading and reviewing books I need to admit that I have read much worse book than this one. 

I Give This Book 2 / 5
