Once I got through the first 20% or so, this got really good. Basically exactly what I wanted and didn't get from Beach Read by Emily Henry. It does a really good job of establishing the relationship dynamic (sans romance) between Nathan and Kat, and the subsequent romantic development/rekindling between them makes sense, and the discussions around fiction/real feelings was interesting. My only caveat is that I thought the event that tore them apart in the past would be somewhat more cataclysmic, but a good read regardless.
