This book was a perfect mix of romance, self-reflection, friendship and family dynamics. I really love the way Emily Henry takes the romance genre and makes it more profound, more complex - all the while being really funny, too. Only reason why this didn't get 5 stars is because the smut scenes gave me whiplash, and I couldn't fully get into them because I was scared a family member was going to interrupt them halfway through. But other than that, this is great.
I'm glad I didn't give up on Henry after disliking People We Meet On Vacation so much đź’•

My third Emily Henry and probably my favorite. I just really loved all of the characters (except Peter and Petra, both of whom I wanted to physically fight) and the setting was so charming. The two things keeping this from being a 5/5 for me are how quickly the relationship moved, especially given how it started, did give me pause at times, and the fact that Ashleigh’s kid was in school all the time but this whole story took place over a summer. Please, authors, I beg of you to look up a realistic school year calendar for the places your stories are set.

Okay, so imagine you're engaged to get married but the night after your fiancé 's bachelor party, he breaks it off because he's in love with his female best friend he previously told you he had a platonic relationship with. Then he says she's moving in, so you have to figure out somewhere to go and end up moving in to her old apartment with the boyfriend she broke up with. Then, your ex-fiancé and his definitely not platonic best friend send you an invite to their wedding. Say what?? So then you and your roommate (the ex of the female best friend, new finaceé) decide you're going to attend the wedding as a couple and decide to fake date...to make them jealous?
If you're intrigued, check out Funny Story by Emily Henry!
This book is laugh out loud funny at parts and is an inspection of the ways we will bend ourselves for love. The FMC goes through a lot of growth throughout and it is a joy to read.
