Gr 10 Up–Alex and Molly, the fan-favorite endgame couple from
She Gets the Girl, are back in this positively cheesy Christmas rom-com. Three years later, and true to their origin, the girlfriends are still going strong. Now they’re playing matchmaker together, attempting to set up their friends Cora and May during winter break at May’s family’s Christmas tree farm in the perfect little town of Barnwich. Seniors in college, Alex and Molly are both trying to figure out what’s next for themselves as individuals and as a couple, dancing around the topic awkwardly and causing a fair bit of conflict, all while enjoying the quintessential Barnwich Christmas scene. Complete with snowball fights, ice skating, hot chocolate, and pancakes, this novella gives everything readers need for a gratifying classic Hallmark-style Christmas story. Molly is biracial Korean American; the ethnicities of the other protagonists are not stated.
VERDICT An adorable, romantic, sapphic rom-com perfect for fans of the original, but still accessible for new readers who just want a quick, fun romp.
