I was excited to read this book because I had heard such great things about it! However it was a bit of a disappointment to me. In my opinion, it was so slow and didn't really have anything to hook me into reading more. I pushed through hoping it would pick up but it didn't really (I had to get through almost 70% of the book for them to actually kiss) and the ending was just kind of bland. I think another thing that put me off was the jumping back and forth from past and current summers. I guess I just like more of a linear narrative. On a positive note, the character development and thought process of the characters was very well done. And the writing is very easy to read. If you like friends to lovers and a slow burn romance then maybe you'll enjoy this story a bit more than I did. Just be aware that it takes a bit to actually get into the story.

If I had a nickel for every book I hated that has a movie coming out next year I’m still gonna watch, I’d have 2 nickels- which isn’t a lot but it’s weird that it happened twice (Love Hypothesis & now PWMOV)

God this was awful & I didn’t enjoy anything about it. I especially hate when an fmc is pining over the mmc. Alex gave nothing to me and him having “anxiety” wasn’t developed enough to redeem him at all. I didn’t care for Poppy either. Maybe it’s because this is one of Emily’s earliest books, but I hope the movie does a better job
