My Review:
Reading this collection of stories was so good! I love her writing and this series, and I loved getting to spend this time with the characters, because there's always another mystery, and I can't get enough! They were an utterly delight and I loved spending this time with them! 

That this story was bookended by Prague, of Avery, before and after, and then Jamison of the during, was just so good to read! We know what he found out, but not how. It's something that has major implications so I'm glad that we got both of those stories! 

The Same Forwards as Backwards, of Toby and Avery's mom, that hurt. We know how it ends, so watching them fall in love while she's grieving her sister, it was bittersweet. But I'm glad that we got to see that time, because it's an important part of the story as a whole. 

The short stories, I've read a few of them before from when they were previously published, but it was great to have them all collected together where we can read them and the new ones. It was so great to be in these perspectives to learn these little pieces of information about these characters. I really found the Xander story a lot fun with all those tackles. They were so much fun to read and I'm so glad that we got them! The secret santa story, and the Hawthorne's version of it was epic! 

This was a great collection of stories and I can't wait to read more by Jennifer, Lynn Barnes!
