We'll start the 16th! :D

[Tbirdplanstoread]

Awesome! Thanks!!

[Tbirdplanstoread]

Finished the first set! This is going to be an interesting read! Kind of reminds me of the movie, Scrooged.

[✨faith✨trust✨pixiedust✨]

I'm glad you're liking it! I'll have to start late, but I should catch up fast

[Jen K]

Also started and really enjoy it! Holly was kind of truly awful but I still hope all ends well for her somehow.

[Tbirdplanstoread]

Wow! It's getting really good! I actually lost track and read a couple of tomorrow's chapters lol

[✨Emily]

I haven't started this book yet since I'm still catching up on another buddy read but I'll (hopefully) finish this by the end of the month.

[Jen K]

I've managed through the first 3 days (12 chapters) and expect to finish on my flight tomorrow. I'm really enjoying so far and can't quite guess how this is going to turn out.

[Rivka]

Right so... I’ve finished it. 5 stars! Lol I devoured it in one sitting so I don’t know what happened in what chapters and I dont want to spoil anyone but it was So Good

[luna ☾]

Finally started this last night! I didn't get very far yet but damn okay, Holly is horrible af and honestly can't wait for that to get better. Because I want to strangle her.

A bit surprised that the story jumped straight into Ghost of Christmas Past and skipped all the explanation from the ghost of her stepmother but I suppose everyone already knows that part and I kinda appreciate not having to go through all the motions of explanation and probably freak outs @ what's about to happen to her lol.

[Tbirdplanstoread]

I finished this up last night and gave it 4 stars! This was a great Scrooge story! I was definitely surprised by the ending!!

[✨Emily]

I finished it! It was honestly fitting to reading it during Christmas Day and it just added so much more to the magic of the story. I also ended up rating it 4 stars :)
