The Christmas backdrop adds so much charm and warmth—I'm curious if the author drew from personal festive traditions or wanted to evoke a certain holiday spirit.

The mix kept me engaged without feeling overwhelming, but I wonder if that balance was intentional or just happened naturally in the writing process.

Their quirks really made the story stand out, and I’d love to know if the author had a clear idea of each character from the start or discovered them along the way.
