"All evening long, real snow would fall from the ceiling to glitter on the lashes of dancing girls and ardent boys, but Neve and the Dreamer didn't linger. They had other things to do: all of them. All the things, dreamed and undreamed,…

This holiday anthology includes stories from many popular YA authors like Jenny Han, Gayle Forman, Rainbow Rowell, and David Levithan. All twelve stories include Christmas and/or New Years themes. Though many do not have much religious…

This was just lovely. Add this to your must read for the holidays list. Also an excellent way to sample some new authors!

My True Love Gave to Me is the kind of anthology that I would want to come back to again and again just for the love of it. An anthology is generally only as good as its worst story and here there was a good story after good story and even…

My True Love Gave to Me is a collection of twelve short holiday stories by some of the most popular young adult authors of recent years. Though I may not have enjoyed all of the twelve stories or the writing styles of every author, I…

Normally, I give short story collections a 3/5 because there are some I love and some I don't and it's a good middle road rating. However, this collection was the right amount of cheesy and filled with holiday spirit. I will say I might be…

This holiday favorite was full of twelve short stories, it was diversified with love. Last year, I enjoyed Let It Snow and now... this! It was a great Christmas book that connected me to life and my reading journey often, the last one The…

First time reading a short story collection. I really enjoyed the experience, but I didn't really enjoy all stories the same way. Midnights by Rainbow Rowell: 5/5 The Lady and The Fox by Kelly Link: 2/5 Angels In The Snow by Matt de…

The stories that make up this collection are all over the place. Some of the stories are really endearing, with vivid characters. There are a few stories that made me wish the short stories were turned into books so I could keep reading…

I like that there is ethnic and class diversity among the characters.

Very well done. All these novella's are put together nicely and tell a great story in only 10 pages! I'd definitely recommend this book to someone looking for something to read over winter break!

I enjoyed reading all the stories. My favourites were: Midnights by Rainbow Rowell, a lovely cute peice of fluff to start of the collection. It's A Yuletide Miracle Charlie Brown by Stephanie Perkins, my favourite relationship, and…

Listened to this book on audio, and I am in love. These stories are magical and beautiful, just like Christmas ought to be. I recommend this to any old grinch like me who needs a boost of Christmas spirit!

Overall, this was a very sweet anthology of stories. Perfect to read around the holidays and it was needed! I'm going to rate each story on it's own here: "Midnights" by Rainbow Rowell- 5/5 No surprise there :) "The Lady and the Fox"…

I always find short stories unsatisfying--I need more time to get to know the characters. But the stories in this anthology are all sweet, lighthearted Christmas tales, and it's nice to see more from some of my favorite authors. Even with…

My True Love Gave to Me like any compilation of short stories, has some hits and some misses. All of them are meet-cutes, some more profound and some more sweet. So I'm going to give each one a brief sentence and a Ho Ho Ho or a No No…

Often worried with anthologies that content will be uneven - not so here, where I really liked them all! Nice variations on holiday romances - plenty of diversity in culture, gender, location. Totally enjoyable.
