 My favorite, so far, from this author! I loved how the romance developed between the main characters, where there wasn't as much enemies to lovers as in other books. The secondary characters were sweet, funny, and supportive with their own stories that fortunately did not subtract from the main plot. Everything blended together so well. I was excited that I predicted how the resolution would come together and it was so fun to read how sweetly it played out.

Lots of F words. It detracts from cute moments in my option. There are also four sexual scenes. Would not recommend for young readers. Definitely an adult love story. Very cute and hard to put down!

This was my second attempt at the Emily Henry hype and I am so glad I liked this one! It did help more that it's dislike-to-love which is a trope I prefer. I really liked the characters of Charlie and the sister Libby. And I liked some of the plot! I think I've found that some things with Emily Henry's writing don't vibe as well for me.
- I find her FMCs pretty unlikeable... and dense? At least the two I have read. While her MMCs seem to be based on real people and are likeable, it's a strange contrast.
- I don't like some of the metaphors and descriptions. I'm still puzzled with the description that she could 'feel his laugh in her stomach'??? There were others that had me making faces or pausing while I read. 

And for this book, the epilogue felt like it was written by another person or character and it was kind of odd. Could have done without. It took away from the ending for me. 

Anyways I swear I did like this book quite a bit 😅
