Three siblings go to their mother's house in the Catskills for Christmas. I loved the story read in one afternoon.

This book was amazing and I devoured this book in just a few sittings! I loved the character development and how the story progressed.

This was a perfectly festive holiday read but parts were funny, insightful and heart warming. Three adult siblings come back to their mother's house for the holidays. Each child is struggling with relationships and work. When the siblings get together they raze each other and it is funny for the great one liners.

Liz, Birdie, and Rafi all have different fathers but same mother. Mom has been keeping a secret for years and this holiday the truth comes out.

I liked how the author wove serious issues in but also added humor in. This was a very diverse cast of characters which all come together for the holidays and learn to love and let go. Although Liz was my favorite as it was great to watch Violet get a rise out of her and push her out of her comfort zone.

Georgia Clark makes you with you could hang out with this family during the holidays.

Most Wonderful was such a delight! And I absolutely love Christmas — so I loved the festive, wintry setting of the book — but this is so much more than a holiday novel. I'm so impressed that the author was able to successfully weave the love stories of three very different characters — and also, the beautiful, evolving relationships each of these characters had with their mother! — into one story, but she did it and she did it so well. Each of the characters are three-dimensional and so relatable (even though I am absolutely a Liz, I had quite the crush on Birdie, and really fell in love with all of them); the romance is real, sexy, and joyfully queer; the internal evolution of each main character is so evident and realistic. And it was just so much fun to read! I'm really excited to read this one again come Christmastime :)

THIS IS WHAT CHRISTMAS ROMANCE DREAMS ARE MADE OF. I LOVED IT SO FREAKING MUCH. GIVE ME MORE. MORE CAST, MORE VIBES, MORE STORY. EVERYTHING

As a lover and romcoms, and especially holiday ones, one read of Most Wonderful puts it in the favourite category right away. I fell in love with each member of the Belvedere family, with their chaotic vibe together and endless love for one another. All the storylines are hilarious and kept me on my toes, but at the same time each has a deeper meaning that will keep these characters rotating in my mind for a long time. There's so much to relate to when it comes to siblings, love, relationships with parents and health. I'd recommend this book to anyone looking to laugh, and probably cry a little, over the holidays.

Clever, insightful, and full of feeling, MOST WONDERFUL is, well... the most wonderful. Hard stop. I was lucky enough to get my hands on an arc of this, and, despite holiday rom-coms not being my typical jam, I fell head over heels for this ensemble cast and all their seasonally-relevant antics. You will laugh, cry, and swoon, possibly even at the same time. Georgia is one of my forever auto-buy authors for the simple fact that she is a true master of character-driven storytelling. Lovers of Emily Henry and Casey McQuiston will find themselves right at home with the perfectly imperfect Belvederes. Do yourself a favor and grab this one, ideally with a warm beverage in hand!

Most Wonderful was honestly a well written Christmas novel. It just, unfortunately, wasn't the one for me. It surprisingly handled illness, addiction, depression, anxiety, and a myriad of other things while also fleshing out multiple characters and three couples, and did it quite well. I saw myself in Liz, was frustrated at Birdie, and fell in love with Rafi, which are the three siblings and main characters. I personally did not love the constant references to current actors, musicians, social media, and other things. These are always a cringe for me. I also just didn't love the couples or the way their mother acted. It truly was well written, it just wasn't written for me, and that's okay!

What is not to like?? This book was unique and heartwarming and I will definitely be looking into this author further!

This was such a fun read with a good balance of addressing real life issues, giving the readers some spice, and showcasing some really sweet love stories.

what a most wonderful read! i enjoyed getting to learn about and know each individual character with the different POVs, and it was easy to follow. i always like the concept of different love stories to follow and seeing where each one will take you. sweet stories and it will be a very amazing novel to read around the holidays later this year!

thank you to the author, netgalley and dial press trade for the opportunity to receive an advance copy in exchange for an honest review.

This was my first “Christmas” novel and Georgia Clark novel and it knocked it out of the park for me. The multiple POV’s are written perfectly where you didn’t feel like it was an info dump of too many things. The characters and their stories all intertwined beautifully and the character development for each one was perfect and not lacking. Though the book is just over 300 pages it did not lack at all with storyline and plots. We learn so much about the three Belvedere siblings, their struggles, their love lives, their relationships with each other, and their individual back stories that shaped who they are. It was a quick and beautiful read that kept my attention the entire time wanting to know what happened next. Although it’s marketed as a Christmas novel don’t let it stop you from reading any time. Its main focus is the Belvedere siblings and their relationships and just so happens to be around Christmas time. Also it’s queer! We love it! We love everyone!

A great read for someone who's looking for a sweet little holiday romance. There's Christmas and romance in the air at the Belvedere homestead. Three siblings, all with their own unique personalities and issues, meet up at the home of their mother, a famous actress. All three have potential love interests, and the book follows their progress with these relationships.

Equal time was given to each couple and it created a nice contrast to move from one to the other.

Overall an easy read with no drama or surprises.

I really liked this! I know Georgia Clark can be a hit or miss author for some but The Regulars was one of the first books that got me back into reading. This story is told in multiple POVs and just like before, each narrator has a distinct voice so it’s easy to keep track. All the characters and their love stories felt very developed.

An absolute joy to read, this book has everything: family, heart, spice, and many laughs. The writing is rich and relatable, dabbled with pop culture references and hilarious winks. I fell in love with every one of the characters and wish I could spend the holidays with this delightful family at the Belvedere Inn.

The author’s prose is witty and engaging, drawing readers into the lives of characters who are relatable and endearing.

A deeply owing novel about love---in all forms
.Three siblings come together at Christmas to be with one another. It is there rjat each character falls in love. The romances are beautifully developed. An achingly real novel.not to be missed.

I absolutely LOVED this book! It’s INCREDIBLE!’ I fell in love with all the characters! It’s one of those books you pick up and absolutely can’t put down until you finish it and then you feel sad when it’s over because you fell in love with everyone. It’s the queer Christmas rom com I dreamed of finding on a shelf my whole life!

I thought this book was so fun! I am a big fan of multiple POV’s and being able to see inside everyone’s heads. Babs was an absolute icon!! The three siblings were absolutely charming and wonderful. There were a few heavier topics that I feel like were handled with care.

Fairly typical holiday romance story. Not a huge fan of multiple shifting POVs. Not much else to say at the moment but will edit this review if I happen to have any budding thoughts.
