Finally read the internet sensation book and author! And I see why there is so much buzz around it. I personally relate with Poppy, and as a flawed character, it makes her feel more real, the situation more real. I love the exploration of two sides to every story despite the entire book being in Poppy's pov. Though there were a few typos/confusing wordings, the storyline just gets me that I can't put those minor obstacles as a negative point.

Nice easy read to get me out of a reading slump. The characters were relatable and the storyline was believable in a sense that a misunderstanding can make life literally do a 180 when you are least expecting it. I liked both characters but sometimes felt Poppy was a bit much. Despite this it made me tear up at the ending. Solid romance novel.

poppy and alex's relationship made me feel soft and fuzzy inside. i put down this book with an unwavering belief that they were soulmates and that they knew each other inside out. the inside jokes, taking care of each other when they're ill, knowing each other's families, sharing secrets, highs and lows - loved it all. it's hard to establish believable intimacy between characters in any novel, let alone a romance.
the structure and the storytelling were excellent. as a reader, i felt like i was going on vacations right along with poppy and alex as we travelled along the timeline of their friendship. typically, in single POV romance books, the male love interest can feel pretty flat. but alex was as equally fleshed out as poppy, and it was beautiful to view his growth through her eyes.
emily henry you will always be famous!!!

Emily Henry books hit me right in the heart. It's the same way I felt seen and heard by Sarah Dessen as a teenager...just grown up and with more quarter life crises instead of comings-of-age. And like Sarah, Emily is officially going to be an instant buy author for me from hear on out.

I i wasn’t drowning in school work the book would have a higher score. However I can’t remember the name of the siblings and who is who but it’s taken me like 2 months to read it which is highly upsetting on my part but overall good summer rom com
