A review by sarahsbookstack
So This Is Christmas by Jenny Holiday

lighthearted fast-paced

3.25

I remember liking Matteo in the previous books even when he wasn't in them a lot but wasn't really excited about the romance here for him. Cara just didn't seem a good fit to him for me. I didn't really get the feeling that they were "returning Eldovia to its former Christmas glory" as the back of the book describes. 

I enjoyed the moments we got to see of the King and the small glimpse we saw of the Princess, the way Matteo helped Torkel find a way to propose to his boyfriend, and of course the gift baskets Matteo and Torkel do every year for the village. 

Festive because it takes place during Christmas time but I wanted more excitement.
