In "Something from Tiffany's," Melissa Hill masterfully weaves a tale of love, fate, and the magical allure of Tiffany & Co., taking readers on a journey through the streets of New York City and the depths of the human heart.

The story revolves around two protagonists, Ethan Greene and Eva Jordan, whose lives intersect in the most unexpected of ways. Ethan, a struggling artist, finds himself at a crossroads in life when a chance encounter with a mysterious woman sends him on a quest to find the owner of a lost engagement ring. Meanwhile, Eva, a successful businesswoman, grapples with her own doubts and insecurities as she prepares for her upcoming wedding.

What unfolds is a delightful and heartwarming narrative filled with twists, turns, and unexpected revelations. Hill expertly crafts her characters, breathing life into them with depth and authenticity. Ethan's journey of self-discovery is particularly compelling, as he navigates the complexities of love and ambition, while Eva's inner turmoil adds layers of emotional depth to the story.

One of the novel's greatest strengths lies in its vivid portrayal of New York City, serving as a backdrop against which the characters' lives unfold. From the bustling streets of Manhattan to the iconic Tiffany & Co. flagship store on Fifth Avenue, Hill captures the essence of the city with vivid prose and keen attention to detail.

At its core, "Something from Tiffany's" is a story about the power of love to transcend barriers and the belief that destiny has a way of bringing people together. While some aspects of the plot may feel predictable at times, Hill's skillful storytelling and engaging writing style keep readers hooked until the very end.

Overall, "Something from Tiffany's" is a charming and enchanting novel that will appeal to fans of contemporary romance and heartfelt storytelling. With its captivating characters, picturesque setting, and poignant themes, it's a book that reminds us of the magic that can be found in the most unexpected places.

I had actually watched the movie before reading this book, and I almost want to say that the movie was better. However, this book still was enjoyable to read and right up there with other romantic comedy novels by Sophia Kinsella or Debbie Macomber for example. Going into this book, I was surprised that the book was set in Europe and the movie was set in America. Still. I enjoyed the romance between the two characters very much and I would consider reading this book again. Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for sharing an advanced copy of this book with me!

Everybody wants something from Tiffany’s right? this was a sweet book with twist and turns after a mixup with a Tiffany’s package. On 5th Avenue in NYC. Follow the story with its misunderstandings and mixups just like any Rom Com, all the way to London and Dublin and see what happens . It’ got a little frustrating that they could not just solve it already , but ended sweetly enough!
Thanks for the advanced copy from Net Galley!

I ended up putting this down at about 50% because it was just taking forever to do anything. I hated the characters I was supposed to hate, I liked the ones I was supposed to like, but the sheer stupidity of every single one of them kept things dragging and uninteresting. Sadly not for me.

I loooooved this book and I'm glad Hello Sunshine did the movie. Melissa's writing is so good and the characters development is top notch. Read the book first then watch the movie. you won't regret it. I highly recommend it. It's also a really quick read.

I was expecting Something From Tiffany’s to be a heart warming Christmas romcom with all the Hallmark Christmas movie vibes. Unfortunately, this one just wasn’t for me.

I loved the premise - a mix up at Christmastime that has the wrong Tiffany’s bag going home with the wrong person. While I expected the meet cute and anticipated the twist, I was incredibly frustrated by the story because most of Ethan’s problems could have been solved by simply calling his credit card company.

Thank you to Sourcebooks Landmark and NetGalley for the #gifted digital copy.

Interesting and well written I just personally couldn’t get into the story. Difficult to follow at times and a little slow. Typical and predictable love story. It was a struggle to finish reading it as it was so blatant what the ending would be. I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.

Charming, idyllic, romantic, and wistful. NYC at Christmas is on my bucket list and this book was a perfect way to take that trip in my imagination. I loved every aspect of this book (including the plot twists and turns) and cannot wait to watch the movie!

I love Melissa Hill's writing and anybook set in New York is always a winner for me. This did not disappoint. A definite page turner as I wanted to know what the next twist would be. Great read

It is a story of 2 man who are bought a gift for their respective partners and the gift got mixed up between them when they involved in an accident. Gary did his last minutes shopping, bought a Tiffany’s charm for his girlfriend while Ethan who planned to proposed over Christmas bought a perfect engagement ring for Vanessa. And when the Tiffany’s bag got mixed up, their lives has become intertwined when Ethan tried to recover to find back his pricey bag.

This story filled with twist and turns. At times, i feel frustrated with Ethan. He come across as Mr Nice guy in this story. He doesn’t want to hurt Rachel’s feeling hence he missed the chance to tell her the ring that she wore belong to him and not from her fiancé. Overall, this book is a quick read to me with fate and betrayal being the focus of the story.

When I heard that a film was being made, was released in December 2022, I was so excited that I had to re-read it! I loved it even more the second time round.
A heart-warming and uplifting novel - perfectly festive and gloriously romantic.

This is a movie tie-in to the Amazon movie that came out in the 2022 holiday season. The novel is cute, but the premise is pretty thin and the ending was incredibly rushed and disjointed in how everything fell together for the main characters.

It's a decent read, but not one that I would put at the top of anyone's TBR pile.

I wanted to read this book since we’d been to New York at Christmas this year. It was a lovely read. There was some love, some drama, and beautiful settings. I did not see the twist coming at the end, though. I am looking forward to watching the movie on Amazon.

I liked the idea of it. This is one time that I enjoyed the movie more than the book and the changes they made. I wasn't feeling this book

"New York City at Christmas and a visit to Tiffany's is a recipe to sweep a girl off her feet unless fate has other plans".

This was a great Romcom with a great setting, amazing characters, and even tho it could be predictable, it was a great holiday read!
