Review: Snow in Love by Melissa de la Cruz
Snow in Love was just what I was looking for to cozy up with as the weather is getting colder. It features stories from four authors who I love that each revolve around the holidays. I found the anthology to have a very good mix of stories with plenty of diversity. I actually enjoyed all the stories, which is very rare for me. Ultimately, I loved the warm and fuzzy feelings that I got while reading.
❀ Nic Stone’s Grounded is a Favourite
Of all the stories, my favourite had to be Nic Stone’s Grounded. It tells the story of a scavenger hunt in the airport and contains some multimedia aspects. What I especially enjoyed is the fact that story has both its adorable moments and its serious messages. I was impressed at its ability to discuss issues like racism in a sensitive manner, while still remaining festive. Honestly, I’ll read anything set in an airport and anything to do with the holidays, so this book was a real win for me.
❀ Short and Sweet
Snow in Love by Melissa de la Cruz is a festive anthology with four adorable short stories. I enjoyed all the stories, but my favourite had to be Nic Stone’s contribution. If you are looking for something short and sweet to get you into the holiday spirit, I would definitely recommend this one.

It is definitely a perfect new holiday read. 🙂
The stories sound really cute, but I am just not an anthology person.I have tried, but I never am able to really enjoy them
I feel that! Anthologies are definitely hit or miss for me. 🙂
I don’t read anthologies much but this sounds like a fun read! I’ll add it to my TBR list! I’m glad you enjoyed it! Nice review! 🙂

Can I just say that I immediately wanted to get this for the title… I love it. But, it does sound like something I could get into. I love that it’s 4 stories in one. I have to put this on my TBR list.
