Okay im loving this book but ffs she has used the word "albeit" a million fucking times and its pissing me off lol. Ik strange but that's me for ya. But on another note loving the characters so far and Im so interesting in the situation with Sadie and her brother

The mittens.

"Tomorrow' i repeat 'yes tmr' she grabs a popcorn bowl out of nowhere. Her own sort of magic. 'If u use the window when u leave please remember to shut it all the way. It gets drafty' i blow out a breath amused 'i won't be using the window. Im a ghost' 'so u say' 'I'll see u tmr then' she shoots me a distracted thumbs up. I roll my eyes, my magic sweeps over me before she can offer excuses or lob anything else at me"

"i hold out my hand ' time to begin' she doesn't move 'no thanks' i drop my hand 'Harriet.'She picks up her mug 'ghost man' 'you cant avoid your fate' she arches an eyebrow 'oh, that's a very good line"
"How can I get you to take my hand?" 'I'd like to talk to your supervisor,ghost of Xmas past' 'oh please dont be that person' she laughs.A bright burst that slams out her body.Laughs like shes made to do exactly that

GUYS THE BANTERRRR. u dont understand. Im only 17 pages in and im loving it. She's so funny and I just love this premise. I've never read a Christmas book apart from children's ones - can you tell? Lol

" the only sound is the hum of the television at my back and the crunch of the candy cans when she bites the end off. She's wearing flannel pyjamas with little reindeers all over them, her feet in thick red socks. The outfit is oddly endearing if not wholly absurd. " im being haunted by the ghost of Christmas past" she states."

Ahh its so christmassy!

"I have no interest in your gingerbread house' 'what do you have interest in then, murder?' 'I have no interest in that either. Im interested in your soul' he says. Ominous. 'see that sounds a lil bit like murder" 'its not murder'
'its just, if your a murderer you should rlly work on your presentation because-"

"on the first day of December the universe gave to me! A string of bad luck and and a ghost apparently"

" I dont have anything valuable" i drag my teeth over my bottom lip. 'Actually that's a lie. That gingerbread house by your feet is hand painted. You could probs get something the black market for it"

Love her.

"I grip my candycane. It's not sharp but I've got enough adrenaline to cause a little damage. 'What do you want' i breath ' i want to help you. It's not too late Harriet. You can mend your ways' i blink ' is this like a door-to-door thing? Im not interested in joining your cult thank you"

Talk about a meet cute. This is so Holly jolly. Lol.

Ahhh the first sentence is already doing it for me. " on the first day of December the universe gave to me - a busted knee, a twisted string of garland, and a cat with an attitude problem." Tell me why i genuinely read this sentence in the song. Like i sung this sentence. So excited!

ITS TIMEEEEEE. my first Xmas book. ( it just read an autumn book 🙈) im so excited. Feeling so festive. Ahhh

Awww kai. So happy for him

" besides winter has always been my favourite month" Screaming.

"At first I think hes giving me shit for making sure I got a good view of him in those baseball pants but then his new walk-up song begins to play over the stadium speakers and I know exactly what that scheming smile is about. Mariah careys "obsessed" is blaring all around me. Our wedding song on full blast as isaiah heads to the plate but before he gets there he turns back to me, extends his bat, points and winks"

Omfg. OMFG. he just played the song from their marriage ceremony as his walk out song, pointed to her with his bat, winked as he sung along to Mariah Carey's "obsessed" Im obsessed with this man. Kennedy darling wtf r u waiting for? Ahhhhh

This boy is so fucking obsessed im dying

That was uncalled for. Very uncalled for. But this is VERY Powerless and powerful. Like very simular. And I've already clocked two character who I think will have a novella. But yea, as I was saying before very like that series. I don't know how to explain without spoiling but iykyk.

Omggg it has art!!! Like fanart in the books but like so cute. I'm living rn alr!

Stop. Because what do u mean the flashlights are all the colours of hairs she's had. WHAT DO YOU MEANNNN. I'm dying. This is SO cute 😍

Oo and the tattoo scene and the tiara scene...the banter in this book is so good!

" is that what you are my star? Scared?" Screaming. "You are mine" dying " i wouldn't mind seeing you in boots" choking " I'm half way there when I hear a sinfully amused chuckle" eyes dimming " next time tell me" dead.

I. Am. LIVING. slayyyy divas! Honestly this was exactly what I needed at this moment in time haha. Trials, Greek mythology, steady balance of plot and romance. I love lyra ( and her name Honestly) and hades is...scrumptious. "that's my girl" " lyra: I am so fucked' him: only if you would like to be. No? More the pity" !!! And "you'd stand out even if I dresses you in rags and covered you in mud" ahhh

Fuck u. I hate these men. Messing with her grades now??? Piss off.

I just feel really sad towards the fmc. She is dealing with everything. Trauma from SA causing sh, Ed, depression, suicidal thoughts, disassociating and abandonment issues and it is really heavy. But I cannot stress enough how much I hate the mmcs. I'm so close to dnfing but I feel like I've made it this far that it feels like a demerit to myself lol. But yea, themes quite heavy and mmcs are so so so terrible!!!

Fucking stop the bet!? See they can't be that remorseful if they keep putting their ego infront of everything. And they both still fancy them!? Like we're is the self respect girls!? I'm sorry I do honestly feel so sorry for our fmc and thank God we have atleast 1 good love interest with liliana bc I'm ready to kill them all!!! Like I appreciate the mental health rep but it's actually really affecting me idk.

I don't think I can do it guys...aw okay you'll "draw a boundary that you won't touch her sexually again" after borderline sa after she was already a victim. No I do not fking think so. These men do not care. There is no way there will be any sort of efficient redemption arc. Like so what that nacio is being slightly nicer. Like " I can't stop the bet guys feel sorry for me" like u were the one who came up with it!

I am so fucking irate right now. These fucking arsehole, cuntface prickbag, bastarding dick bampots! I hate the men so much. I don't like bully romance but I read anyway so that is totally my fault but...she is a sa surviver. The thing these men are doing to her despite that is outrageous. I'm simply fuming on behalf of the girl. It's so sad, i feel for her. Lili I love tho. think I may dnf but I'll try push through.

* that's a minor detail for me, though. I'm just saying that bc Its been a while since I read the 1st book and read about these characters, so reading this kinda took away that yearning factor a wee bit. Make no mistake though I absolutely ADORE these characters and I in no way am not enjoying the smut scenes, I'm just not enjoying them as much. But believe me I love that man's dirty mouth! So pls don't come for me!*

Okay I'm afraid I may be currently obsessing! the beginning was a wee bit slow but it picked up quickly. I'm loving this though. Like I'm giddy looking at this book. Darien is slowly climbing the ranks! Loren is so sweet but I'm hoping she comes into her own more. We've already seen some sneak peaks so let's hope she really channels that! My only complaint is that they seem to love having sex... im a SLOW burn girly!

Okay the 2nd half has just blew me away. It has been a phenomenal experience. I can't even describe the joy I'm feeling reading this, there are no words. These characters are everything to me. Samkiel and dianna make me believe in true love. And the found family!??? So, so, SO good. And guys...(possible spoiler alert) Who is gonna die!? Bc I get the feeling I ain't prepared for the heartbreak gonna be inflicted on me
