I attempted to keep it relatively basic this time by choosing a few books from my #WinterGames stack.

🎄: 1

Cute YA rom-com set in NYC over Christmas and New Years. I watched the Netflix adaptation last year, and it is a faithful adaptation, though I think the show did improve upon the book. The main characters and side characters all felt a bit more real and charming in the show (may need to rewatch this year!). Love the role that The Strand bookstore plays in both. 7 hours for #WinterGames #TeamGameSleigher and #LittenListen

Watched this and Ice Age Christmas and the new Hawkeye. 16 pts #teamgamesleighers #wintergames @StayCurious

Today‘s tea is Roasted Chestnut, a black tea. This one is in the advent calendar every year and never disappoints. No need to anything to it, just enjoy as is. It is well balanced. #teamgamesleighers #wintergames @StayCurious

Today‘s prompt us “cold night out”, it‘s 20 degrees, cold enough for me! I went out to turn off the holiday lights and what to my wondering eyes should appear…but Leo peeping out. He‘d been sleeping one second before, he‘s always watching…😍🎄

This is a rare occurrence where I liked the screen adaptation better. I thought book Lily was really immature and the ending was lackluster. Still a decent read though, I would have loved it when I was a teen. (I enjoyed all the subtle references to Nick and Norah sprinkled throughout)

A fun, lighthearted Christmas mystery. 4/5 stars

Rating: 4.5/5
Spice: 2.5/5
While this is a short novella, I felt like the majority of the time was spent on the two MCs fighting about whether or not they were “allowed“ to be in love with each other. I guess that part was fine but would have worked better in a longer novel for me. Overall, the story was great; this was my first Talia Hibbert book and I can't wait to read the Brown sisters next!

3.5 stars for this one! This one was a little bit all over the place, and didn‘t quite entrance me like the first 3 did. But I still enjoyed it!

This book was okay, probably because I‘m used to reading more diversity. I might backlist Sarah Morgan, though, because it‘s been a minute since I read a book in (almost) one sitting. Anyway, LOTS of points with this one, haha. It was a SNOWy FAMILY CHRISTMAS so many, many, *many* #wgwordsearch points.
