Short summary of the story: This is from Goodreads, because I am lazy to write my own summaries. So thank you Goodreads.
Sophie wants one thing for Christmas— a little freedom from her overprotective parents. So when they decide to spend the holidays in South Louisiana with her very pregnant older sister, Sophie is looking forward to some much-needed private (read: make-out) time with her long-term boyfriend, Griffin. Except it turns out that Griffin wants a little freedom from their relationship.
Heartbroken, Sophie flees to her grandparents’ house, where the rest of her boisterous extended family is gathered for the holiday. That’s when her nonna devises a (not so) brilliant plan: Over the next ten days, Sophie will be set up on ten different blind dates by different family members. Like her sweet cousin Sara, who sets her up with a hot guy at an exclusive underground party. Or her crazy aunt Patrice, who signs Sophie up for a lead role in a living nativity. With a boy who barely reaches her shoulder. And a screaming baby.
When Griffin turns up unexpectedly and begs for a second chance, Sophie feels more confused than ever. Because maybe, just maybe, she’s started to have feelings for someone else . . . Someone who is definitely not available.
This is going to be the worst Christmas break ever . . . Or is it?
Good points / bad points:
Ok, I loved this book. It is so much fun to read. I love reading about every single date that Sophie went on. I was laughing the entire time. I mean, the dates were so different, but hilarious. The fact that her family picked out those dates is amazing. I loved the families relationship, and the Fab Four. Like, I want those types of friends. And a huge family. Which I both don't have.
I did not know that this is what I was reading for Christmas. This book will be a reread for me in the near future. I almost reread it already. It's the ultimate feel good book there is to read around Christmas time.
