Lily s beloved grandfather suffered a heart attack, and his difficult road to recovery has taken a major toll on her typically sunny disposition. With only twelve days left until Christmas Lily s "favorite" time of the year Dash, Lily s brother Langston, and their closest friends take Manhattan by storm to help Lily recapture the holiday magic of New York City in December. Told in alternating chapters, "The Twelve Days of Dash & Lily" reunites two beloved characters and is bound to be a Christmas favorite, season after season."

I continue to love these two characters! There were definitely times I felt I needed to slap some sense in to them, but I remember acting the same way in high school, so it works. Another great YA holiday romance that was just as good as the first one in this series! #winterreadathon

Flew through the sequel! Lily was kind of a drag this go around, but I think we all needed a break from her toxic positivity. As always, Christmas in NYC— the perfect setting to get into the spirit of the holidays! I‘ve only been to New York in the summertime but I WILL brave the city for Christmas/New Years one day! ❤️

I binged the Dash & Lily series this holiday season. All adorable, I definitely preferred them in order of publication, although I did appreciate that the last one brought back in the literary theme. I really enjoyed being in these characters' heads, but I found Dash tiresome after a while! Lily, however, was just a treat. Great YA holiday romances!

I love that even though Dash and Lily have some growing pains in this story, they don't have a stereotypical break up/reunion plot. Their determination to be with each other is one of my favorite things. #yalit #christmasfiction

Yes, it‘s YA Christmas but there‘s something about Dash & Lilly and traipsing around NYC with them that gets me in the holiday mood.

Wish I was there this year. Hopefully next.

Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️
I read Dash & Lily‘s Book of Dares about eight years ago and just recently found out there were more books. I loved Book of Dares a lot as a 17 year old. This book, I really hated at first and wanted to dnf. Lily was so immature and selfish. It was a turn off. I pushed myself and found the second half to be better and cute. I don‘t know if I will read the third book. We shall see. #bookstagram #bibliophile #litsy #littens

A sweet sequel to the delightful original book. Lily‘s part is a little draining, but it‘s understandable with her age and all she‘s going through. Perfect for the holiday season. This couple certainly loves their big romantic gestures. All the NYC mentions are a treat too.

“There are some things you can‘t control, and time is, like, number one on the list. Number two is the actions of other people.”

I enjoyed a weekend of festive reading. After Dash & Lily‘s Book of Dares I immediately picked up the second book in the series and stayed up late to finish it. Looking forward to the third and last one today.

This is between a pick and so-so. I actually liked this one better than the first book. So I hope Netflix does a season 2 and adapts this one too.

In between reading, I binged many a Christmas romance movie (and may have already filled a Hallmark Christmas movie bingo card 🤭) and worked on my holiday festive tee 👚🎄(a tee because it‘s too warm here for a sweater).

I really liked the first in this series, but I found this one frustrating. Lily in particular was hard to listen to, especially for the first 2/3rds of the book. There is nothing that annoys me more than someone who expects the people who love her to read her mind, rather than just speaking up and saying what she needs. The last 1/3rd is better, but this is still just barely a three star read for me.

The first half of the book was a no for me. The second half picked up and was frothier and funnier. But for me, Dash and Lily's Book of Dares was a much cuter and more enjoyable read.

I bring you #12daysofbookmas because:
1. Holiday stories are how I deal. #joinin
2. Never enough reading time before Holidays.
3. I'm on Winterbreak until Jan 7 & have lots of time for reading.
4. LOVE idea of celebrating for 12 days.
Lily and Dash. I love Lily's spirit & joy in the season even while freely admitting to not being religious. Love Dash for his snarky humor/bamhumbugery while underneath he's a marshmallow. #day1 🎁

This book left me feeling meh. I loved the first book and was so excited to find out there was a sequel... Plus I wanted a great, cheesy, Christmas read. This book fell short for me. Definitely pick up the first one, Dash and Lily‘s Book of Dares, and skip this one. #Book31of2018

I enjoyed 1st book more.Lily continue with her childish behavior and faced some unrealistic risky experiences finding her independent side.Some scenes seemed were extended just to justify the length of the novel hurting the plot.I found interesting the families dynamics & values.There were some dialogues about beliefs, about love of books and hope to the future that I really liked.A simple funny YA novel (more for young) that I enjoyed 🤷🏻‍♀️3⭐️

Lmstraubie I really enjoyed the 1st one. I need to check this out! 6y
Gissy @Lmstraubie I read it like a Christmas story but it is not so good as the first one. However, there were parts That Dash and Lily's aunt expressed that touched me. They are in almost at the end of the book 😳☺️ 6y

This sequel failed to replicate the magic of the first book. Dash and Lily's Book of Dares was whimsical, magical, full of the holiday spirit. In contrast, Twelve Days of Dash & Lily had a sad and gloomy tone. Dash was awesome! He had somehow transformed into the perfect boyfriend. But Lily. Lily was such a downer in this book. Another thing is that the plot felt so random! This wasn't terrible but it's not as good as the first book.

Both are perfect holiday reads. One is about the magic of Christmas time. The other is about finding the magic of Christmas when you are in a dark place. Add both to your December TBR pile for next year!

I liked this book almost as much as the first one. It was what I needed to read right now - funny how that happens.

It seems like everyone's stressed out this year and not in the Christmas spirit because it's too much work...

The beautiful thing about Christmas is it comes even if you're not ready for it. I'm thinking of the ending of Dr. Seuss' How the Grinch stole Christmas. It came! It came just the same...

Notafraidofwords Neeeeded to hear this. Christmas is stressful. 7y
