📖Recommend for Grades 9 and up📖
by Ashley Elston
When Sophie walks in on her boyfriend Griffin discussing breaking up with her, she is heartbroken. Thankfully she has a built-in escape as she is spending the holidays at her grandparents’ house. To help Sophie’s broken heart, her Nonna thinks Sophie should go on some dates. Ten dates, to be exact, with the guy and activity selected by one of the members of her large family. Some she won’t have to worry about, such as her cousin Sara’s and her other cousin Olivia’s pick. In contrast, her evil cousin Jo’s and crazy Aunt Patrice’s are unknowns. Then Griffin pops up, asking for forgiveness so it should be simple, but reconnecting with the boy next door throughout the process makes it complicated.
It doesn’t have to be the holidays to enjoy this fun and entertaining read. Some parts of the story are corny but easy to forgive. While Sophie’s dates play a significant role in the story, it is also about her growth over her time there and reconnecting with her large family. Readers will enjoy finding out who her dates are, what the activity is, and just how it goes.
