I did not enjoy this book as much as I’d hoped I would. Don’t get me wrong, I shed a few tears at the end of the book but that was all. The writing for me was way too cringeworthy, not realistic, tried to hard to make you love the characters. Boring book, had to force myself to finish it every time I put it down. Sadly, I wouldn’t recommend or read again.

A thousand book kisses is a YA romance that follows Poppy and Rune . I think it's best to read this book going in blind . Just know , I've never cried so hard reading a book before . With that said , read this book!

I bawled my eyes out for ¾ of this book, happy and sad tears!! I loved every minute of Rune and Poppy's story. Then I get to the epilogue and it feels like it doesn't explain anything. I guess Tillie explains it on her TikTok but even the explanation seems weird. Truthfully, just read the last chapter and the bonus bit... Skip the epilogue.
