A Wedding One Christmas

I'm so frustrated with this book, because it had a really great premise, and the bits that were cute and fun showed how good it could have been if the author had just kept it cute and fun. But no. Instead, we get two main characters with soooo much emotional baggage that they can barely do anything except have internal monologues about how damaged they are (and some dialogue too). The entire book is just them convincing themselves and each other that they can't be together, even though they really fancy each other. And to fill a few hundred pages with ONLY that, means that the same basic conversations happen over and over and over and over until I just started skimming them in frustration.

And then to make matters worse, the ending is super rushed.

This might be a two star (it was ok) read, but because it irritated me instead of just making me go “meh”, I'm downgrading it to one.
