My True Love Gave to Me: Twelve Winter Romances by Stephanie Perkins

4.0

This book has got very different tales so I'll talk about each one of them in separated.

Midnights (by Rainbow Rowell) | 7/5* - It was THAT good. This was my favorite, I loved it so much. The writing is amazing, the story is beautiful and the characters are incredible. This is a best friend's story and I love those, so... Since this was the first one and it became my favorite, I was a bit disappointed with the others.

The Lady and Fox (by Kelly Link) | 2/5* - I really didn't like this tale. I think it was supposed to be cute and all that, but since it was so strange, that didn't even make a difference.

Angels in the Snow (by Matt de la Peña) | 4/5* - When I finished this tale I wasn't sure I had liked it, but I did. It was a good story that started by being very sad and ended up being very cute.

Polaris Is Where You'll Find Me (by Jenny Han) | 1/5* - What a God-awful thing. This tale was very strange and it didn't make any sense, seriously. I hated it.

It's a Yuletide Miracle, Charlie Brown (by Stephanie Perkins) | 5/5* - Loved it! This tale was lovely. Stephanie Perkins never lets me down.

Your Temporary Santa (by David Levithan) | 2/5* - Another one I didn't like...

Krampuslauf (by Holly Black) | 3/5* - This tale ended up being a little strange but I liked it.

What the Hell Have You Done, Sophie Roth? (by Gayle Foramn) | 4/5* - It was a good story.

Beer Buckets and Baby Jesus (by Myra McEntire) | 5/5* - I loved this tale. It was so cute, so beautiful!

Welcome to Christmas, CA (by Kiersten White) | 5/5* - I think that the most important thing about this tale was not the story but the message. It really makes us think about what we have been doing with our lives and makes us look around. Great story.

Star of Bethlehem (by Ally Carter) | 5/5* - What an amazing story! It was unexpected and I really liked it.

The Girl Who Woke the Dreamer (by Laini Taylor) | 1/5* - I hated it. It didn't make any sense at all and it was very, very strange and kind of scary.

I think it is an amazing thing that some of the authors managed to write such amazing stories within such a small number of pages and despite all the tales I didn't like, this is a good book.
