All I Want for Christmas Is Stu by Lisa Henry
3.0
3 Stars
As per the blurb, Charlie is a bit down on his luck, but he sees a light at the end of the tunnel when he spots his teen crush working the Santa line as an elf. He’s confident that he can easily make a connection with the sweet Stu until he realizes they might not have so much in common.
Admittedly, Charlie rubbed me the wrong way a bit but it wasn’t malicious as it was more a hopeful desperation to find something positive in his recent disappointments. I wouldn't have minded at all if this was longer, and the epilogue assuaged that desire as it was the bestest part of the story!
