This book has become one of my most read and my favorites. It isn't fast paced and its not stuffed full of romance or drama, but there is something so endearing about it. I think its very realistic in that people don't always fall in love immediately, and sometimes it takes awhile, especially if you don't even know the person beforehand. If you're looking for something that keeps you glued to your seat and that makes your heart race, this isn't the book. However, if you're looking for something simple, lighthearted, and cozy (is that even an acceptable adjective for a book?), I would definitely recommend it!
By the end of this story I wished I'd been the one to be buried in my car. Geeeeesh.
This was not a comfortable read, but I'm so glad that I read it. I hadn't really heard anything about this book, even though I am a huge RPE fan, but I decided to give it a go after seeing it in my local library and being starved for a book to keep me occupied at work. Note: DO NOT READ THIS BOOK AT WORK. I was a blubbering mess at my desk by the end and I was so thankful to have some time alone to gather myself because I looked like a hot mess in front of all of my coworkers.
If you're looking for a feel good Christmas book, this is NOT for you. However, it did leave me feeling rather grateful for my upbringing and for the joyous Christmases I've had through the years.
