This book was utterly adorable. Its perfect New York vibes but in a cozy way. Allie is so relatable and loveable and you just root for her right from the beginning. And Ryan, the big ol' teddy bear. Hes a little broken, but so is Allie and thats what makes them so perfect. I will say both their stubborn issues caused me some stress but the ending was worth it. As a music lover, i loved all the musical references and karaoke scene, I could hear the songs in my head as Allie was singing and recording on page. And the scene toward the ending with the casette tapes actually made me tear up. I absolutely recommend this book for any music lover and all romance lovers.
