I'll be honest: I didn't expect to love this one as much as I did because I often find myself disappointed by Bookstagram babies, but oh boy, was I wrong. I loved how real the story felt. So often, romances can frustrate me because the problems keeping people apart are so easy to fix. But Henry created a romance that faced real roadblocks that felt natural and kept me emotionally invested. I loved the banter between Nora and Charlie and the dry humor they share. Nora and Libby's relationship is absolutely fantastic. I love that this was a love story about love, not just romantic love, but all kinds of love we experience; romantic, friendship, familial, etc.

I honestly can't wait to read the rest of Emily Henry's work after reading this one.
