This was very cute. It’s a cozy feel-good, heartwarming, refreshing, and engaging story which has got one of the most swoon worthy romance. I loved and enjoyed reading it.

This was a delightful and wonderful novel. There was a LOT packed into this single novel and it was all woven together very well. It was heartwarming and sexy, happy, sad, and everything else in between. This was a great Christmas novel but would also be enjoyable at any time of year. I would recommend it to anyone and everyone.

This novel gave us three love stories in one novel, plus some extra plotlines and stories on the side. This was delightful! None of them were as well-developed as they could have been if the novel focused on only one plotline, however they were all satisfying to experience and well done given how many pages they each received. It was like reading a three-novella series, except they all took place concurrently. The more I think about this the more that I like it; the characters from each story also served as side characters in the other stories, and all of the plotlines benefitted from it. The stories were sweet, they were spicy, and satisfying.

Alongside the love stories were also plotlines about family dynamics and expectations, personal exploration, careers and life choices, mental illness, the dangers of social media and pressures of being a public figure, and addiction and substance abuse. This was a very full novel, but it never felt rushed or crowded. I appreciated how it touched on deeper and more serious topics alongside the fun elements and cute romance. As the novel had three relationships and 6-8 main characters, they were able to touch on a lot of topics in a manner that felt organic and natural.

My only complaint is that there wasn’t more to this novel. It could have been quite a bit longer, and I would have loved it, but it didn’t need to be. I am personally a fan of longer novels (when they are good!) and this one had the substance to support that. It wasn’t needed though and this isn’t as much of a complaint as a backdoor-compliment.

Most Wonderful shows the three Belvedere siblings, Liz, Birdie, and Rafi, on a countdown to Christmas and the days leading up to New Years. Most Wonderful quickly put me into the holiday spirit through the author’s evocative descriptions of characters and settings. Overall, Most Wonderful made me want to curl up with a cozy blanket and some hot chocolate and be fully emerged into the lives of the Belvederes.
