emotional funny hopeful inspiring lighthearted

delightful romcom! the deus ex machina and some overly wacky moments knocked it down a bit for me but i had a lovely time, especially with the various family members. also adored ted!

A very cute and easy little rom-com, indeed!
The characters are extremely likable and reminded me a lot of my friends :)
I also enjoyed the scenery - Jersey sounds like a delightful little island!
There were some surprisingly touching themes that deal with loss and how we sometimes hold onto things that simply are not meant for us.

Another enjoyable read by Sophie Cousens! At first the plot read a bit too cheesy for me, but as it progressed that subsided and it gained more substance. I really enjoyed the cast of characters and their humor, and thought there was an appropriate amount of character growth as well. Overall a cute read, definitely recommend!

Cute. A fun, fast rom-com. Or maybe more romance than comedy? I usually enjoy the grumpy/sunshine dynamic, and this one touched on that lightly. The grumpy wasn’t too grumpy and the sunny wasn’t super sunny, but they looked the parts. I would really enjoy a book about Ted’s father though, he was lovely!
