Loved this book I wish I didn’t accidentally read the sequel first but never the less it was such a good romance and it was SO funny. Although some of the narration in the book was a bit confusing because it was like past and present tense to the same time.
My fave quote

Where’s my metal trashcan? I’ll happily climb inside and pull down the lid right now, because I like being Oscar the grouch. That trashcan is comfy, and I really made it home in there

When In Rome was the adorable romcom I needed it to be!

This book has so much going for it! I had a great time getting to know Amelia, Noah, the Walker siblings, and Rome, Kentucky. The town really was its own character, and the people in it were so easy to love.

I loved reading about Amelia coming into her own and rediscovering who she is. I loved reading about Noah relearning how to trust. I loved reading this book in general, and I'm excited to read more from Sarah Adams.

This is also the third (!) book I've read this year with a musician as the main character, and I have thoroughly enjoyed all of them. It reminds me of why I love my job, and I connect with their artistic struggles on a whole different level.

Read this book if you love
- Audry Hepburn movies
- grumpy/sunshine
- strangers to lovers
- small-town romance
- forced proximity
- silly nicknames

I can't exactly tell you why this book wasn't five stars, but I trust the ~vibes~ and for some reason my gut told me this was four stars, so four stars it is!
