Funny Story by Emily Henry

As one other reviewer said, it feels very "millenial." This book grabs its comedy from a lot of references to things, which can be done well at times but I feel as though Henry did not execute it well. In addition, this book tries to survive off banter (which I notice a lot of newer books try to do that) and it features a bit of a fake dating trope. Personally I despise that trope. This book was not for me. I think the whole "getting back at your ex" concept is just extremely immature and that is what a lot of this book was. I do not personally care if Miles and Daphne end up getting together, hence why I dnfed it.
I really loved Book Lovers, that was a five star read but I did not enjoy this or Happy Place.
