It's so annoying to get a book that has been badly and carelessly edited and proofread. I have found four misspellings or incorrect usages in the first 130 pages, plus the author used the word "immaculate" descriptively THREE times on ONE page. This was obviously dashed off in a hurry and sent to publication without oversight.

If I had known this was a sequel to the novella The Christmas Book Hunt, I'm not sure I would have picked it up. I didn't care for that so much—I disliked the male protagonist—and, sure enough, I was right! This book opens with the female protagonist down in the dumps because that guy has ghosted her. Not sure I even want to continue, which is a really atypical reaction for me to a Jenny Colgan book!

Wow, some bad editing on page one! the same sentence repeated word for word, three paragraphs apart.
