A romance novel with a subplot about a deadly cult in the Michigan woods and I thought it was only okay??

I explicitly saved this book for a holiday at the beach because I'm obsessed with reading the right book in the right location, but it seems like the timing wasn't right anyway. I wish this would have been more about the writing challenge and banter and rivalry and less drama and less January starting to cry as soon as Gus so much as mentions another woman. Of course it's still Emily Henry so it was enjoyable all in all.

This is still “my perfectly favorite” book. Even after all these years. I was scared that it might not hit the way it had in the past but I’m happy to report, I’m still as emotional, giggly and happy as I was the first go around.

A cute romance! Probably my least favorite Emily Henry book that I’ve read so far, but I still enjoyed it. I loved the main characters and the buildup of their romance, but I wish the side characters were a bit more developed. Her “best friend” was barely in it, and there could have been more explored with Pete and Maggie’s story. I also felt like the plot line with Sonya and her dad wasn’t fully resolved. Overall a fun, relaxing read.
