Blame the Mistletoe by Sarah Johnson

3.0

This was a cute idea for a framing story that got lost in its execution. It was overly sappy, had characters' opinions/feelings changing far too quickly, and the characters discussed highly personal and sensitive subjects in a way that didn't seem realistic to me. Characters were inconsistent both with the source material and with what the variation would have changed. I skimmed a lot as the story went on, which is pretty sad considering how short it is.

I wanted to like it, but it was uneven at best, and that impression is consistent with other books I've read by this author. This is officially going to be the last one.

2.5 stars rounded up for no other reason than I couldn't make up my mind on rounding up or down, and I flipped a coin.
