There are elements of this novel that are very cozy and charming, but overall I found it to have pacing issues, and it is long-winded. I wanted to love Emily more than I did. She is independent, socially awkward, and a brilliant scholar, but I found her character somewhat flat over the arc of the story. Despite her intelligence, she often makes ill-informed decisions and her instances of rashness seem unfounded. The romance is a slow burn and not much happens in this story, so I guess you’d have to see where it goes in subsequent books. It’s cute, but I didn’t fall in love with it the way others have.

I really liked this book!! It’s definitely slower paced but the characters are extremely lovable. The storyline was sooo cozy and the exact kind of chill book I needed at the moment!
