i enjoyed this but not as much as People We Meet On Vacation.

i didn’t connect with January and Gus all that much. also, the amount of times Gus’s “crooked mouth” and “inky, dark eyes” was brought up was actually insane.  i imagine this is what he looked like half the time —-> ⚫️🫦⚫️
 
this book did have cute moments and i liked the cheesy ending. maybe the next Emily Henry book will be a another hit for me.

What happens when you end up living next door to your college rival/crush in a house your dad bought with his mistress? Apparently romance if you are January! I really loved this one, I thought January and Gus were really enjoyable characters to get to know, and I absolutely adore a grump who has also been pining for her for *AGES* :chefskiss: 
A really nice quick read, it had the perfect balance of substantive plot and emotional trauma for the characters to work through, while also being a sweet story of these two hurt people coming together and finding each other through all of the past traumas they have and becoming happier (for now) people because of their relationship.
