    Great for the holidays!

    My girlfriends and I picked up this book for our book club and I was surprised to see how much I thoroughly enjoyed the stories in this collection! Each short story left me wanting for more, yet satisfied with how each story concluded. I definitely recommend it.

    Felt incomplete

    Most stories in this in this collection either didn't make sense at the end or had many things unanswered.

    Mediocre at best

    I only enjoyed chapters 6 and 11. The rest were boring. Find yourself a more joyful book for your Christmas season reading.

    Dumb

    I didn't like it. I'm not interested in teenage live stories. Too much whining.
