Enjoyable enough Christmas tale about a young woman reliving Christmas Eve. The biggest drawback is that it went on way too long causing me to lose interest.

started out strong and cute, but I just am not into the repetitive timeline. Loved the aspect of family is those around you, and the 2nd chance romance aspect of this book.

3.5 ⭐. It started out very strong, but I felt the days that kept repeating started to drag after a while. I did enjoy the ending. Narration was good.

Love a Groundhog Day book, Christmas and romance with a “it’s a wonderful life” backdrop what a great read. Every repeated day was a little different and kept the fun going.

I love Ginny's Christmas stories! This is so cute. Annie designs the windows at a department store, and has been told on Christmas Eve that she may lose her job. Annie was depending on a promotion. She ends up in a time loop with Santa, Braden, some neighbors and two terror kids knocking over displays. What does Annie need to fix in order to move on to Christmas day? Will she find love along the way? very cute!

Thank you Netgalley and dreamscape media for the alc. I wish I would have checked the synopsis for this book and jot went in blind. Groundhog day books just do not work for me. I enjoyed the narration and the side characters.

3.5/5☆

Just a fun little Christmas time-loop story. Loved the main characters and how they worked together to get out of the time loop. Side characters added a lot of warmth to the story (looking at you, St. Nick). This will get you into the holiday spirit. Narrator was fabulous too.

I received an arc from Netgalley and the publisher.

Annie is stuck reliving Christmas Eve over and over again in this Groundhog Day type romance with a touche of Miracle on 34th Street. It did get redundant (did she really have to relive the same day TWELVE times?). I have read this story so many times before, it has to be done in a VERY original way for it to stick with me, and this one did not. Also, the narration felt off to me. The head-hopping made it feel confusing at times. I did like the heartwarming Christmas feel of it all.
I received an advance copy of this book for free and I am leaving this review voluntarily.

This was cute.
It gave hallmark movie vibes.
If you like a hallmark christmas movie, I'd recommend you give this a listen!

I was lucky enough to receive a Audio ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review. Thank you to Ginny Baird, NetGalley and Dreamscape Media for this opportunity!

I absolutely loved this book! It was a great way to escape into the cozy nostaglia that Christmas often brings. Combining elements from beloved movies like Miracle on 34Th street, groundhog day and It's A Wonderful Life, Baird brought us a beautiful, sometimes comical story of finding the true meaning of Christmas while exploring themes of loss and found family.

I quickly found myself falling in love with Annie Jones and the way she deeply cares for everyone in her life including those who live among her apartment building and co-workers, always wanting to go above and beyond to make sure they are not spending the holidays alone. It was such a refreshing escape in this crazy world.

The narrator for this book (Emma Faye), did a wonderful job! her voice was very easy to listen to and accurately captured all the emotions of the characters to make you fell as though you were right there along with them for the ups and downs of the story.

I loved that while this was a romance between two adults it was a clean read and would be appropriate for the YA scene - i would happily gift this to a 15+ teen in my life with no question of content being inappropriate.

I hate to say I did not enjoy this book. However, thank you to NetGalley, the publisher and author for allowing me early access to this book in exchange for my honest review.

This book was way too cringey and repetitive. It made it feel almost impossible to complete. I ended up having to give up on it at about 60ish percent. Sadly, did not enjoy.

Annie is a window designer for a department store in NY and is stuck repeating New Years Eve day on a “loop with loopholes” as she calles it.

This is a really sweet Christmas romance with magic, time travel, found family and of course, Santa.

I enjoyed the story and it did not bother me that the same day repeated itself because some things change. And it was a nice touch the fact that people seem to remember some things.

Annie manages to solve some issues at work with the help of Braden, a really handsome security guard. They have instant atraction and get closer and closer.

I listened to the book and think that the narator did a good job.
This has dual POV, but is written at the 3rd person and there is only one narator.

Overall I would recommend reading or listening to this book with a cup of hot chocolate.

I received a complimentary copy of this book through Netgalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.
