I think Emily Henry was in my house, studying me and picking apart my brain when coming up with Harriet's character.

As the younger sister who craves parental acceptance and as an extrovert who is forced to be an introvert, this book hit so close to home. So many things that Harriet felt about her home life are things that I struggle with too. The fear of losing your friends so you just push them away to get it over with is also so close to home.

I can't thank EmHen enough for writing this and for me being able to read it during a chapter of my life where I needed it most.

I went in with no expectations and was blown away by this book. By the end, I felt like I was friends with the characters. I became heavily invested in each of the characters. I love how the chapters jumped between present and past tense to provide greater insight. I cannot recommend this book enough!!

So cute and captivating. I love these characters. I love how the side characters weren’t even side characters, but they had lives and personalities of their own. A story about (mis)communication, growing up, and always finding a place where you belong with the people you love.

📖
I enjoy Emily Henry books. This was good and I enjoyed reading it. I think Henry's books follow the same trope - the characters not talking and accepted their assumptions despite it being oblivious to others.
