review 1: Noel thinks she is having a very bad Christmas this year. What with stuck being a secret Santa to girl she doesn't even want and her mom pregnant and a child on the way.Noel is a loveable character. She is your typical teen girl and her Claire was a very good friend. They shared secret things together and understood each other. Sure Noel in the book at one point, was kind of a b**** but the other characters had their own personalities. I think, if this was a teen book, I could guess what would happen. But Noel is very simple-minded and can't guess what is right in front of her. Mia was a shy-guy and I liked her role in the story. Nick was funny and just your sweet teen guy.Even though this book was kind of a little girly for me, I thought, at least, the characters (mostly ... morethe girls) annoying to the extent of throwing down the book and yelling at no one.Okay so this book was a mystery near the middle but once it went off to almost end you just knew KNEW who her Secret Santa was. You just KNEW!!!! Sweet story with a nice Christmas complexion, I wish my English teacher made something like Secret Santa. PLUS the cover is an art kind of way I haven't seen those in a while. This book made me smile and I think it'll make many smile too.
review 2: FIRST IMPRESSION:The cover is beautiful, don't you think? And the title's really catchy.WRITING STYLE:It has one of the simple writing styles, but it managed to hook me right in. You have to consider, however, I was in sixth grade when I read this.PLOT:Noel's love-life is very realistic and I love how she and Nick are perfect for each other. Oh, and the whole "Secret Santa" thing is a wonderful twist to this story.CHARACTERS:The story behind Noel's name is hilarious. Though I don't think she considers it so.OVERALL:A novel which people of all ages would enjoy, but especially middle-schooled girls.AMOUNT OF STARS:5 less
