This book has been on my TBR for AGES!!! I finally bit the bullet and boy did it deliver. This book is quirky, lighthearted, and funny but also reflective and a story on unrequited love. It’s more complex than most other rom-coms. There were parts where I was royally pissed off at the character but it all worked out in the end. I recommend! I look forward to reading her next book

I loved both the present day and historical stories (maybe equally) which is so refreshing since usually one is written significantly stronger than the other. There was a twist toward the end that I didn't really like but other than that this was one of my favorite romance novels that I've read in awhile.

Okay there’s a bunch of great things about this book.
1. The banter is amazing
2. Phenomenal grumpy-sunshine!
3 a fantastic road trip journey
4. Really great wonky side trips
5. The resolution
But other things were so frustrating!
1. Millie is so frustrating with, what she says herself, is “willfull misunderstanding.” It’s too much, and it’s the WHOLE BOOK of her being like “hey this is how this person is acting” and then saying “but I’m sure they’re not being truthful/misleading me/im not understanding” and it really took me out of it (probably because I was listening?)
2. The third act breakup. I listened and things were going well with 1.5 hours left and I knew I was in for it. I really was so frustrated by how this all went down.
So yeah, overall really enjoyed but the things that didn’t work for me nearly overshadowed the fun and emotion.
