Noel and Noël are not the same name. It’s bothering me a lot. This book has me in such a hater mood. I don’t hate the story, I just really feel like the writing is bad, it’s pulling me out of the story so much…and HOW do you write an entire book about Christmas and mistakenly call your female protagonist Noel (no-hl) instead of Noël (no-el)?? Is it supposed to be a near-miss name situ, not quite Christmas?

“Did she wanted a cuddle buddy now and not just somebody in her bed?”
HONEST TO GOD in my copy of the book…am I having a stroke or is that sentence incorrect? Did nobody proofread this?

oh I turned the page and they confirm he is 26. show me a 26 year old and his friends that speak like this??? I was ALSO in my 20s in 2021(younger than 26 though, tbf), and it feels very out of place to me

I keep stopping in disbelief. This book was written in 2021 about adult characters (Nick has been in the military for 8(?) years, so he is at least 26) and they’re still using Snapchat and calling eachother ‘broski’ and talk to each other how a 9 year old imagine adults speak.
I honestly think w/out the ‘hello youths’ writing this would be a good story, the rest of the writing isn’t bad.

I’m not a big DNFer. I’ll fight my way through the worst books. This is very weak writing at the start, though. I’m sure the story will hook me (I love a silly romance) but this book is written like it is for tweens and the fact they *allegedly* have very steamy sex later is unimaginable to me…feels borderline inappropriate hahahah. I’m looking forward to having my mind changed!:)
