I really liked this Emily Henry book! Not my favorite of hers, but it’s up there. The whole interview-a-celebrity thing generally feels a bit overdone for me, and it also caused the romance between Alice and Hayden to feel a bit rushed. I feel like I wasn’t able to see full development between the two of them as much as I would’ve liked, but I still loved the two of them together. I also never really like when the story

ends in a pregnancy that seems unnecessary, so that kind of threw me a little bit.

On the positive side, I really enjoyed hearing dual story lines and trying to figure out Margaret’s story as the book went along. It made it more fun to read for me. And, of course, EH’s banter between the leads is always fantastic, so I loved those scenes as well. Overall, I would definitely recommend this book!

Tornou-se minha obra favorita da autora. A abordagem da maternidade, criação dos filhos e história familiar foi brilhante, profundamente comovente.  Existem diversos gatilhos, aconselho os leitores mais sensíveis a consultar o StoryGraph para mais informações. 
Sem dúvida, lembrou-me "Evelyn Hugo", de Taylor Jenkins Reid, contudo, a singularidade da autora e seu estilo de escrita permaneceram evidentes. O desfecho surpreendente foi extraordinário, mantendo-me em suspense e sem fôlego até o final.
