Emily Henry never fails to write romances where the surrounding characters are just as instrumental to the story as the main couple, and I truly appreciate that. I adored the friend group in this story, probably more than the actual couple. Harriet and Wyn grew on me as the plot went on, but the standout was definitely Harriet's friendship with Sabrina and Cleo. Not my favourite of her novels, but of course still a wonderful and emotional read as I've come to expect from all of her books!
