Book Lovers by Emily Henry

littlelibraryofsky's review against another edition

4.0

"When I want something Nora, I don't give up easily."

"Is there anything better than iced coffee and a bookstore on a sunny day? I mean, aside from hot coffee and a bookstore on a rainy day."

"That's the thing about women. There's no good way to be one. Wear your emotions on your sleeve and you're hysterical. Keep them tucked away where your boyfriend doesn't have to tend to them and you're a heartless bitch."

"Daily life was unpredictable, but the bookstore was a constant."

"I already told you, Nora. I'll go anywhere with you."

Book Lovers by Emily Henry totally stole my heart! What hooked me the most was how it's not just another run-of-the-mill romance. Nora's dealing with a lot that stresses her out, sometimes including the romance parts.

The way Emily Henry sets the scene is just magical. You feel like you're right there in the small town, soaking up every bit of its charm. And let me tell you, this book is packed! There's everything from small-town vibes to big city drama, with a dash of hot guys and family secrets thrown in for good measure.

Book Lovers isn't just about romance—it's about life, love, and all the messy stuff in between. It's a winner in my book, and Emily Henry totally nailed it. The romance gods would definitely be proud!

P.S. this would have been 5 stars if it weren't for the term Sissy used repeatedly LOL

I had my doubts about this book and all the hype that was centered around it. I liked PWMOV, didn’t like Beach Read at all… LOVED LOVED this one.

I connected to Nora so much, her and Charlie were perfect and I could read so many more books about them. The ending was perfection, the banter was perfection. I laughed out loud so many times, and I cried so many times the last 100 pages or so. So so so good.

1000/5 ⭐️

Anyone who genuinely thinks that they could bet SOMEONE ELSE’S RENT STABILIZED APARTMENT for their sister who thinks it’s romantic to be broke and exhausted with too many kids needs a brutal wake up call because what in the absolute audacity is that.
