Alba and Theo are an adorable couple and I really enjoyed their story. I identified with Alba as someone who also has a very demanding career and is often trying to take care of everyone and everything besides herself. I loved seeing her come to the realization that it’s ok not to be everything to everyone and to trust and depend on others. I didn’t love the fact that Theo had some serious communication issues that I don’t feel were addressed fully enough and I wished we had gotten more closure on his own personal  struggles. I have to say I am obsessed with the idea of an elegant, viby interior design line for bookish adults. I have legitimately been on the lookout for exactly this and to see it on page made me want to find this even more! I loved this book and the bookish interior design aspect was the cherry on top for me.
