About this listen

Stonewall Honor author Jake Maia Arlow delivers a sapphic Jewish twist on the classic Christmas rom-com in a listen perfect for fans of Kelly Quindlen and Casey McQuiston.

It all starts when Shani runs into May. Like, literally. With her mom’s Subaru.

Attempted vehicular manslaughter was not part of Shani’s plan. She was supposed to be focusing on her monthlong paleoichthyology internship. She was going to spend all her time thinking about dead fish and not at all about how she was unceremoniously dumped days before winter break.

It could be going better.

But when a dog-walking gig puts her back in May’s path, the fossils she’s meant to be diligently studying are pushed to the side—along with the breakup.

Then they’re snowed in together on Christmas Eve. As things start to feel more serious, though, Shani’s hurt over her ex-girlfriend’s rejection comes rushing back. Is she ready to try a committed relationship again, or is she okay with this just being a passing winter fling?

Simple Sweet & Sapphic

I came into this book mainly due to the hype it got leading up to it's release on TikTok. The simple branding of a "Jewish Sapphic Holiday Romcom" instantly let me know this book was for me, and it delivered on that excellently. There is nothing groundbreaker in this book, it calls attention to tropes, but it's a very fun listen. The narrator did a fantastic job delivering the story, likely helping to elevate the book as a whole.
