All the characters are so unlikable except the main love interest. Not the cozy love story I thought it would be

I like that her father pushes her to live her life. Come on girl, 5 chapters of being an insufferable grinch doesn’t make for a fun read. Get your $#!+ together!

I reread chapter 4 and I can’t stand the MC. I understand sh has some health issues but she literally says no to everything. She gets invited to go out to a bar, go on a hike, and skiing. She literally says no. Girl go to the bar and don’t drink. Go for a short hike, the fresh air will do you wonders. Why does she have to be coerced to exist in this book!!!!

Chapter 2 - April runs into an ex/crush, she is clumsy, has food stuck in her bun, and makes a fool of herself in front of him. Potential love interest. Don’t know much about him yet.
April and her father are decorating “Norbert” the Christmas tree with ornaments she’s had since childhood. This is a favorite holiday traditions.
April convinces her dad to eat in so she’s not tempted to eat badly ie cheese
