One Christmas wish, two brothers, and a lifetime of hope are on the line for hapless Maelyn Jones in In a Holidaze, the quintessential holiday romantic novel by Christina Lauren, the New York Times bestselling author of The Unhoneymooners..

It’s the most wonderful time of the year…but not for Maelyn Jones. She’s living with her parents, hates her going-nowhere job, and has just made a romantic error of epic proportions.

But perhaps worst of all, this is the last Christmas Mae will be at her favorite place in the world—the snowy Utah cabin where she and her family have spent every holiday since she was born, along with two other beloved families. Mentally melting down as she drives away from the cabin for the final time, Mae throws out what she thinks is a simple plea to the universe: Please. Show me what will make me happy.

The next thing she knows, tires screech and metal collides, everything goes black. But when Mae gasps awake…she’s on an airplane bound for Utah, where she begins the same holiday all over again. With one hilarious disaster after another sending her back to the plane, Mae must figure out how to break free of the strange time loop—and finally get her true love under the mistletoe.

Jam-packed with yuletide cheer, an unforgettable cast of characters, and Christina Lauren’s trademark hijinks, this swoon-worthy romantic read will make you believe in the power of wishes and the magic of the holidays.

In a Holidaze

I picked this up because I was looking for a lighter book with a rom-com feel. I ended up really relating to the way they re-examined their group traditions that they were continuing for the sake of maintaining tradition. It ended up causing way more introspection than I anticipated. 😂

Clearly I'm not going to get to this this holiday season but you are probably the sixth person who has had good things to say about it, so I definitely need to read it.

My copy finally came in yesterday so I am going to squeeze this in before the year ends. I have enjoyed what little bit I have read so far.

Finished this one up last night. Gave it five stars. It kept me entertained. I love the characters and the story line.

Snuck it in under the wire, Denise!
