Top Five Things That Are Ruining Chloe’s Day
5) Working the 6:30 a.m. shift at GoodFoods Market
4) Crashing a cart into a customer’s car right in front of her snarky coworker Sammi
3) Trying to rock the “drowned rat” look after being caught in a snowstorm
2) Making zero progress with her crush, Tyson (see #3)
1) Being accused—along with her fellow teenage employees—of stealing upwards of $10,000
Chloe would rather be anywhere than locked in work jail (aka the break room) with five of her coworkers . . . even if one of them is Tyson. But if they can band together to clear their names, what looks like a total disaster might just make Chloe’s list of Top Ten Best Moments.
This was a very quick, delightful read that I didn’t even realize was set on Christmas Eve until I started reading.
I’ve been trying to read some of my older ARCs, and this was one on my Kindle that sounded sort of fun and light, just what I was in the mood for one evening.
But there was more depth to this one than I expected, and I got a bit of a Breakfast Club vibe from the group of teenagers Chloe worked with. I liked the mystery, the relationships that deepened among Chloe and her coworkers over the course of the day and evening, and as a major list-maker, I really liked Chloe and her lists.
This was a quick, fun read, and now I want to check out more by Liz Czukas.
