I really enjoy David Nicholls writing style. It’s so beautiful and funny yet not cringey YA style. I found the characters very loveable and I followed the story well, I just felt the book was longer than it needed to be. The story line lacked lustre but never the less I still enjoyed it, taking me back to summer romances - very nostalgic!
