It was a very good book with amazing character development. It really makes you root for the characters and hope everyone gets their happy ending. The dynamic between Charlie and Nora was well thought out, and a nice twist on a small town romance novel.

I caved and read Book Lovers!! I'm not a big Emily Henry fan honestly, but this one is def her best that I've read. Sometimes the humor is a little too cringe for me, but Nora and Charlie had good banter that was often cringe but became kind of cute once I got used to it. Can't get behind Libby calling her sister "Sissy" because no one with a sister has ever called their sister that past the age of 5 but the story holds up despite this glaring detail. I think this book worked for me because the love interest thing goes on consistently throughout the book--they don't deny themselves as is very common in romance novels, and I thought that was interesting and unique. Nora is a pretty solid character and a really quality portrait of an eldest daughter. Overall, this book was better than I expected (but I do still think there are better romances out there)

I love the romance, and equally the story of the two sisters. As a younger sister, Libby's character was definitely frustrating to understand at times and I wish she had been more upfront with Nora throughout.
