I absolutely loved Emergency Contact. It was the perfect romcom. The banter between Katherine and Tom was hilarious, wittiness perfectly executed, never forced. They crackled (IYKYK) the whole time. I also loved all of the self-realizations, vulnerabilities, and tenderness throughout.

The opening of the book was perfect! I loved how it set these two characters up - showing them as foils of each other. And then that line toward the middle of the book really opening Katherine up “I exhale in relief that my darkest secret remains safely hidden: That I want a place on his spreadsheet. I always did.” I really felt for Katherine and was so glad that Tom showed up for her.

What an absolute fun read with a surprising amount of sweetness. I devoured every word.

This book was hilarious and heartfelt and so much fun! If you love second chances, hilarious banter, characters with a complicated history, found family and a whole lot of road trip mishaps at Christmastime, then read this! Super cute.

…and while there is another relationship involved, there is no cheating so hallelujah.
