maybe me liking funny story was just a fluke. i appreciate how ambitious henry was with this plot, but it gets all rushed and messy - even contrived - in the last third. disappointing. gorgeous cover though. wished for more focus on alice and her mom. i absolutely despise an epilogue/last chapter with a pregnancy reveal as a sign of happiness. banger last line though. i think this is the last emily henry book i’ll read for a few years

My favorite of Emily Henry’s thus far. Couldn’t see things coming as easily and the build up was so great.

first and foremost, this book is NOT a romance!! i think a lot of people are coming out of this book disappointed because Emily Henry's team markets her books as romances. does it have romance though? yes. this book is more focused on interpersonal relationships while still inhabiting henry's whimsical and fun style. i really enjoyed this book! i do think it was a slight departure from henry's other books, but i liked that she tried something new. my only complaint is that she tried to create a lot of tension between the two MCs by letting them be together but also not really so there were a lot of (almost) "spicy" scenes, and frankly, i got kind of bored of it. i can see it appeal to other people though who read romances for that reason. i hope henry keeps trying new things!!
