Oh my god, I am Nora Stephens.
I absolutely adored this book from the very beginning. From the first chapter I resonated so deeply with Nora and I am so glad that I read this book.
Charlie proved to her time and time again that she didn’t need to change. There was absolutely nothing wrong with who she was. He thought she was perfect just as she was and I just think that’s absolutely beautiful. And if Charlie is just the best, sweetest most amazing man ever, oh my god. I love him. He’s absolutely one of my favorite fictional men I’ve encountered.
Thank you Emily Henry. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Because I will have it all.

this one was a love letter to older sisters, New York City and tall queens (and books as usual).
I loved the characters, both the sceneries (big city and small town).
I loved the "adult who doesn't want kids but loves their nieces or nephews" rep even tho I do want kids in the future (very far away future 🧍🏼♀️). but I just think that there's this pressure for people (specially women) to have kids and to want kids. people deserve that choice. so I loved that in this book.
it also made me wanna live in New York City even if just for a bit (I've always wanted to visit, but living in the US sounds terrifying tbh).
aaaaand the older sister part was so relatable (except for the orphan part) I actually cried so many times during those parts. I have no idea if Emily Henry even has siblings but I feel like she's either definitely an older sister or she did her research VERY VERY well.
ALSOOOO, the beach read references 😭❤️ I need a book where all the characters meet and become best friends and it can be 500+ pages of just them talking and I would EAT IT UP. okay no but seriously I need them to becomes friends. PLS EMILY.
