This was very cute, loved the wedding vibes. The couples were cute and I liked the side characters a lot as well. I wish it was just a little longer so there was more of some of the characters and relationships. It felt rushed at the end when that was what I wanted to see more of. It needed more resolution on some of Ama’s issues as well.

“You may think everything ends one day, but you haven’t had ‘everything’ with me.” 

This book has been popular last year so I'm a year late with the read and I finally understood what the craze was about. The one and most important piece that I love so much about this book is the dual POV and timeline. Julie Soto wrote this book in a way where the present timeline is Ama's POV while the past timeline is Elliot's POV. It's a second chance romance, so you're really intrigued as to why these two broke up because they were clearly captivated with one another - like hello? Who can get past Elliot's grumpy behavior but Ama, right?

It's really fascinating to see and understand people's perspective when it comes to marriage such as how one is adamant to not get married because of her mother's 16 marriages. Although, it's pretty ironic how this book is set in a way where these two main characters had to work together for a wedding since Ama is wedding planner while Elliot is a florist. With their past relationship, you can see the struggle of being in each other's presence.

It's a really cute and quick-read for a second chance romance. I just wish that there's more to the story than meets the eye because it's pretty predictable. Other than that, it's a good read!

For this book, I opted to not annotate, just to get the feel of reading without taking a second to write on the book. I was experimenting how much faster I would be if I annotate or not and I've realized that it's almost the same. Maybe in one book, it's an additional hour or so just to annotate, so I'm still going to annotate books that I feel like it would be a book I've thoroughly enjoy more when I wrote down my feelings.

I was mostly bored by this book. Spent more time trying to understand why it was so popular than actually engage in the story.
