Book Review
Let me tell you that when I heard this book existed, I’ve never subscribed to a newsletter fast enough! I generally really dislike subscribing to newsletters but I just had to for this one as it’s the only way to get the free book. I am so glad that I did though ahhhh! I’ll be keeping this review short and sweet to match the book.
This is a short novella that follows on from the Chestnut Springs series. It’s formatted so that each chapter follows the perspective of a different MMC from the OG series. It wasn’t a collection of short stories; instead, it told one story through different perspectives. When I think of the Chestnut Springs series, I see each book as its own separate unit rather than something intertwined through loving family dynamics.” So this book was refreshing to see them all come together and interact as a family.
I enjoyed how lighthearted and fun this book was. It had me giggling and smiling all the way through. My favourite chapters were Rhett and Cade’s. Beau’s felt a little lacklustre in comparison but I was a nice way to finish off the novella. I was glad to see a little interaction with Harvey during Theo’s chapter as I’ve always found him such a loveable character and he had me giggling the most.
This book has really put me into the Christmas spirit. I loved all the vibes it was giving off in such a short amount of pages. The winter vibes, the festive spirit and the family interactions were great.
The drop of .5 in rating is purely because of the fact this book was so short. I finished it wanting so much more! I loved being back in Chestnut Springs and didn’t want it to end. If you’ve read this series already then I’d definitely suggest reading this novella. It was such a fun time and perfect for the festive season.
