It didn’t hold my interest. I wasn’t invested in any of the characters and didn’t care what happened.
3.5/5⭐️
Started off strong and then I got bored halfway through. I had trouble connecting with the characters until like 70% in.
I do love how badass Nora is tho lol.
I loved the banter between them and was sad when it kinda slowed down.
The book felt like it was more centred around Libby and Nora’s relationship than Charlie and Nora. And I get why some people might like that, but I wanted a romance.

It wasn't my favorite Emily Henry book, but it did the job. It was a nice little story.

Wouldn’t we all love a Libby and Charlie in our lives
The book was pretty boring tbh. I didn't care for the story (which was pretty improbable and artificial in parts), the setting nor the characters. It was all bland and colourless and 90% of the issues could have been resolved if Nora and Libby had had an honest conversation.
The secondary characters weren't really fleshed out - besides two scenes we don't really get to know anything about Libby other than how Nora sees her. There weren't any other secondary characters worth mentioning, and the main characters, Nora and Charlie, just weren't all that interesting. Nothing much happens in the book: I kept waiting but even the "big reveal" was pretty dull. Also, I found it weird Nora being a workaholic and her inability to set healthy boundaries wasn't andressed at all. All in all I am thoroughly unimpressed by Book Lovers.
