So it's a problem that I zoom through books I love and then crash into a list of okay books or severe disappointments.

Regardless. I love this book. There are many things it isn't, but what it is fills me up and makes me want to reread it once a year. It's comfort and earnestness and romance. It's funny but kind of deep, and not in a navel-gazing way. It makes me want to visit NYC or maybe just find really good takeout and visit a cool local place.

I hope her other books are this good. Fingers crossed.

This was such a cute story!

This is a quick read, with a delicious slow-burn romance that just leaves you happy and smiling! I devoured this one and highly enjoyed it!

Perfect for all RomCom fans!

questo libricino di poco più di 200 pagine mi è entrato nel cuore. L’ho letto praticamente in 12ore e, in realtà, in una serata, se si escludono le 40 pagine iniziali. Mi ha tenuto compagnia e ha superato di gran lunga le mie aspettative. Ho amato il fatto che questo libro sia ambientato nel mondo dell’editoria e che, quindi, vengano menzionati più volte i nostri amati libri. I personaggi mi sono piaciuti tantissimo e, raga, voglio un Noah nella mia vita. Lo stile è molto scorrevole, tanto che non riuscivo a staccarmi dalle pagine di questo libro, soprattutto dopo aver superato la metà. Unico difetto? è finito troppo in fretta. Secondo me con anche solo 50 pagine in più sarebbe stato perfetto.
