Lazy Book Review – An American Christmas

Today I am going with a “Lazy Book Review” – which means I am not going into too much details, just say whether I liked the book or not.

Denpo Myint “Yin” Thuta is living the dream. His dream. A good job, higher education, supportive community and, best of all, his live-in boyfriend, Ari. Yin has his happily-ever-after…if only he and Ari could take the time to actually enjoy it. With the holidays fast approaching, Yin’s determined to change all that and surprise Ari with an over-the-top gift that will leave him in no doubt how much he’s loved—even though they agreed to keep things simple this year.

Like Yin, Aristide “Ari” Douniama worked so hard to secure his future that he may have forgotten how to enjoy his present. Despite there being plenty to be thankful for in the moment. With big plans of his own in the works to surprise Yin, Ari may or may not have gone overboard. Or forgotten to check their respective schedules.

’Tis the season of giving, and in their quest to celebrate the “perfect” American Christmas—and failing—Ari and Yin get a much-needed reminder that they already have the greatest gift of all: each other.

Thank You Netgalley and the publisher for providing me a copy of this book! This book is based on my honest opinion.

I didn’t know that this was a part of the Dreamers series–this is the 5th book of the Dreamers series. I really like the chemistry between Yin and Ari, both have the similar background and I think they are really a cute couple. This was also a quick and short read so it wouldn’t take that long to finish this book. Though there is no specific plot line, the story actually talks about the romance between the two, about love, faith and getting together with the loved ones during the season of Christmas. Only thing was I wish this book was a bit longer!

Overall, I enjoyed reading this book and worth three stars!

She loves writing stories about people who look and sound like her people, getting unapologetic happy endings. When she’s not dreaming up love stories, planning logistically complex vacations with her family or hunting for discount Broadway tickets, she’s a social worker in New York City, working with survivors of domestic and sexual violence.
