I feel like I might have enjoyed this more if it was shorter. The writing is good, and the story itself was cute. It was just long, and seemed unnecessarily so at times. So, I know you all can read synopses, so I won't bore you with rehashing this one. Obviously, we know Holly is going to start out rather unlikable. And she is! I mean, she isn't the worst or anything, but yeah, you can see lots of room for growth. Which is good because that is kind of the whole point, right?
The rest of the book is basically the shenanigans that happen while Holly is Ghost of Christmas Past. The crew she works with are really fun, I enjoyed them. There were a few "secrets" that I figured out almost immediately, but it wasn't a huge deal. The romance was cute enough, but also not something I heavily shipped or anything. The character growth was definitely the best part.
Bottom Line: Basically, my feelings for this book can be summed up as lukewarm. It was fine. It was cute. It had a nice message and some warm fuzzies. But I wasn't exactly blown away, either.
