This is a very cute and charming holiday story. I loved that the authors carry us through the wonders of New York City and a very famous bookstore as two strangers build a relationship based on dares, happenstances, and a notebook of clues.

★★
I just recently finished this book and I’m processing all my thoughts, so look forward to a full review soon.

★★★★★
This is a reread of The Cruel Prince for Miss Print’s readalong, and you guys I love this book/series so much. The betrayal and the angst…GAH!
