This one is making me sob. I really liked how their paths kept crossing and when they were on the same page they were so, so sweet together. However, the first half of the book felt really slow and Josie seemed like a completely different person then compared to the rest of the book. Like she was not coping well with her grief and then all of a sudden a few months later she was totally normal in regards to her grief and its ups and downs. I also feel like the chemistry from acquaintances to lovers was a bit hard to see. And the miscommunication!! Josie didn’t let Max talk when their paths crossed and Max was too much of a wimp to tell her the truth. I totally understood not telling her right away in the first December, but why did it take two more encounters before the truth came out?? Also, I am sobbing at the ending, so it was not the holiday romance I had hoped for, though it gets points for giving me all the feels. I would try this author again, but far from my favorite holiday romance.

It's a lovely emotional story which is set in London and other parts of England and Scotland. Against the title it takes place not only in december but in two complete years. Many times the story is very sad, but in a good way.

A good book, but my god what a heart wrencher. The ending, are you kidding me?

Why does the love interest have to die in a tragic freak event, too?? This girl can't catch a freaking break

This book is advertised to be a romance / romcom. It is not. Not really. What was this book? I don't know but the ending made me so angry with its bait and switch. If you liked books like One Day by David Nicholls then maybe this is for you?
