Would you let your family play matchmaker to help you get over a broken heart?

Ashley Elston's 10 Blind Dates is the perfect Christmas treat: delicious, warm, funny, escapist YA romance.

Sophie wants one thing for Christmas - time with her boyfriend Griffin. So when her parents plan a trip to visit her sister over the holiday, Sophie begs to be left behind with her grandparents and her boisterous extended family. But she and Griffin break up and she's devastated.

Sophie's grandmother, hating to see her so upset, devises a (not so) brilliant plan - to distract her from heartbreak. Over the next ten days, different family members will set Sophie up on ten different blind dates, which doesn't sound awkward at all...

When Griffin turns up unexpectedly, it makes Sophie more confused than ever. Because maybe, just maybe, she's started to have feelings for someone else. Someone who is definitely not available. Film rights have been bought by Matt Kaplan and Ace Antertainment, the team behind hit Netflix YA movie Jenny Han's To All The Boys I've Loved Before. Everything Everything screenwriter J. Mills Goodloe is attached to adapt the screenplay.

This was such a fun, adorable, and wholesome read! It was exactly what I needed to get out of my reading rut!

The book follows Sophie, who breaks up with her boyfriend at the start of Christmas break. To help cheer her up, her Nonna concocts a plan: Sophie will go on ten blind dates over the course of the break, each chosen by a different family member.

THE PROS: This book was pure entertainment! It was a really great feel-good story. I just wanted to keep reading and reading because it made me so happy! It was also super funny! Some of the dates that Sophie goes on are WILD and I often found myself chuckling or cringing! Perhaps most importantly, however, the book deals with some deeper themes, like how important family is. I think these themes really helped to give the book some substance.

THE CONS: My only main issue was the ending. The whole book was leading up to who Sophie would end up with and it just fell a little bit flat for me. The ending felt pretty non-committal, and I just wanted more certainty.

All in all, I really, REALLY enjoyed this book! It was the perfect blend of cute, funny, and serious!
