I ordered this book to read throughout the month of December. It's good quality, but the sections are a bit hard to rip without also ripping the pages (could be just me though!) The book says to use a letter opener or ruler to open the sealed chapters though I wouldn't recommend using the ruler. The book has a very small amount of spice, which is good considering its a YA book. In my opinion, the book wasn't very good because it was very tropey and predictable.

Coop Concept, Bad Book
The concept of this book is so fun. Opening a new chapter each day leading up to Christmas? Genius! However, the story wasn’t good. Plain and simple. Very juvenile and predictable storyline, amateurish writing, and too many irrelevant characters. Don’t waste your time with this. Instead, find a book with 24 or 25 chapters and read that instead.

love that the chapters are each "wrapped" so you can open one a day to read. the story wasn't my favorite, but still a fun Christmas read!

Great book, fun concept.
I dont understand the reviews on this one. Personally I loved it. It was a great holiday love story. I personally don’t have the patience to only do one chapter at a time so I finished early by a week but well worth it. I hope they make more of these.

Total DNF
I loved the idea of a advent book, but this was horrible. I endured 3 whole horribly written/translated chapters before I gave up & said no more. I rarely DNF a book, but I couldn't take any more.

Fun gift!!!
This is such a fun gift!! Received it from my friend. It’s a “hallmark love story”…if you’re looking for a Pulitzer novel, you’ll be disappointed. If you love “hallmark” holiday stories, you’ll love it!! So cute!

i want to throw this book away
if you are someone that takes pride in owning your books and taking care of them, do NOT buy this. now, im not an idiot and i knew the chapters were all sealed but i didnt realize that every single page in the book was as well. no matter how careful i was, almost half the pages in my book have ripped up edges now. whoever came up with this design needs to rethink their career choice. a job in publishing with absolutely no clue that when someone spends $20 for a book, they would like it to at least be in decent condition

Bad in a good way book
Arrived on time. Story is a very bad cheesy love story but it is exactly the kind a story I was looking for. It is near impossible to rip the pages without ripping them a bit but I been enjoying the process. Get this if you enjoy bad cheesy romance novels, Goodreads has accurate reviews

Good book
Despite other reviews I enjoyed this book. Little piece of advice, I used a rat tail comb it had a metal end. It worked perfect! No ripped pages!

Tip for opening the pages
I’m using a wooden ruler that has a metal edge to open the perforated pages and it’s working great for me. I like the length of the chapters and it’s manageable to complete a chapter for each day. I’m enjoying the story and characters so far.

Don't do it
If I thought they’d take it back with pages opened, I would do it. Cute idea, but execution in English is terrible. I’m pretty sure this is originally written in French and is probably a cute story. Any and everything good is “lost in translation” as they say!

Pages do not open or tear appropriately. Very disappointing

Horrible Execution and Story
The idea of an advent-calendar-style book was adorable, and I was excited to start it on December 1. Unfortunately, the execution is terrible. Each “day” is sealed with perforated edges that are almost impossible to open without ripping everything. It’s not just the chapter cover that tears—the pages inside are connected, so if the perforation goes wrong, you can kiss that whole section goodbye. I ended up having to manually tear apart every page in the first chapter. The story itself doesn’t make up for it either. It’s flat, and after a week I was so disengaged that the hassle of opening each section just wasn’t worth it. Save your money and skip this one.

Poor traslation
It only took a few pages for me to question if this book was a translation. The phrasing and wording is odd and for me very distracting. It felt like I was reading English subtitles. I couldn’t get into a rhythm and after the 5th chapter put it in the discard pile. I’m sure it’s a cute story in French, it’s disappointing that the story got lost in translation.

Nice concept, poor execution
The story is OK so far, I’m only a few days in, but the chapters are impossible to “unwrap” without tearing pages. This sounded like a fun idea, but it’s become annoying very fast, and now I have a book with a bunch of ripped pages.

Bought for my 16 year old daughter. Shes only read 2 chapters so far and says it’s written terribly. The idea of an advent book was cute but not worth the money.
