I keep forgetting to review these novellas individually, and now it's been too long since I've finished them to remember many of the specifics.
From what I do remember, the Eloisa James novella was the only one I really enjoyed, but even that one was too short to accomplish what it really needed to accomplish. The others I found varying degrees of disappointing and/or not especially well developed. The Christmas-Carol-esque one just didn't do anything for me; the plot holes in the pretending-to-have-a-happy-marriage one were big enough to drive an entire damn train through; and the last one I don't remember much of at this point, but I remember being vaguely annoyed most of the time I read it. Also, for a series of novellas set at the same party, the through lines didn't feel especially consistent.
Anyway, yeah. This didn't end up being a great set of holiday novellas for me to read.
