Pretty much all the stories were the same,going to a bar and drinking green beer for St. Patrick's day. Do authors think that is all people do on St. Patricks day? Where's the imagination? I give credit to the authors who talked about parades and enjoying good food instead of drinking to celebrate! Can you tell I am a nondrinker?

Sweet holiday read

Today is St. Patrick's Day so what better way to celebrate than with reading stories that highlight the holiday. Each story can be read in about ten minutes which was perfect for me, especially since I started this late last night. I was able to read a handful of stories before I turned in for the night.

I enjoyed some stories more than others , but they were all sweet holiday reads. Some of the stories were friends-to-lovers, a couple were about established couples, but the majority were new couples just meeting for the first time on St. Patrick's Day.

Happy Reading!!!

I have a story in here, so I don't feel comfortable giving it a rating, but the stories inside are really short and cute -- perfect for standing in line!

Fun collection of St. Patrick's day shorts. Quick diversion and nice samples of each author's writing style.

[Jess O. (From Jess to You) · Rating 3 out of 5]

"For this full book I give it 3.4 out of 5 stars, each story was charming in its own way. I enjoyed the glimpses that we got of all the characters ... just some stories I wish were fleshed out a little more than others. Overall, I definitely recommend this anthology to any romance reader, especially for those who want to get into the "St. Patrick's Day spirit." "

I’m not exactly sure when I got this book. I think it’s probably been hanging out on my kindle for a decade or so. The book is made up of 21 tiny stories that are each only a few pages long. I am not a romance reader but figured such short stories wouldn’t have me rolling my eyes too much. The couple of stories that weren’t romance based were the ones I liked the most, obviously. The others were fine, if not very repetitive. Get ready to read about a lot of green beer and red heads. Apparently that’s all most people think of when they think about St. Patrick’s Day.

[Lisa Maloney · Rating 1 out of 5]

This was an anthology, but each author wrote about half of one scene in a book. Half of them didn't make sense or were just flat the whole way through, so at least they were short, but I would have much preferred six authors to do longer pieces than 20 authors doing ones that are barely there.

A nice collection of shorts

This was a nice collection of short stories. Most were "how they met" or "when they finally confessed their feelings" vignettes. Nice for filling in short moments spent waiting in lines or for appts.

This was such a fun project! I enjoyed working with these wonderful authors and sharing their lovely stories!
