Being that this is a Hallmark book and based off of a Hallmark movie, it does run like a typical movie from them. It's a bit cheesy haha, but it's still a very nice story. I especially love the atmosphere in the book because I really love New England and the fall-type activities they are doing in Vermont. It was kind of an easily predicted ending, but I still really enjoyed it and I did like how they ended it. Another cool thing is you get a recipe at the back of the book haha.
And now I wanted to share some art I made inspired by the book! Vermont is known for maple trees and maple syrup, so they focus on that a lot in the book. Derek, the chef Fiona is pretending to date, enjoys using food from the nearby area, which includes maple syrup. So I made this art piece inspired by the maple and maple trees in the book.
To make this piece, I used mostly markers, but also one art crayon. I used a wide variety of colors because I really wanted to add depth to the image and add as many details with color as I could. I also wanted to emphasize the tree in front, since it has a special importance (which you will find out when reading the book). So I added some white ink to really help it stand out. I really love how it turned out. I've been trying to improve on my skills with art markers and I think it turned out a lot better than I expected haha.
Let me know what you think! I hope you enjoyed!
