✨️Book Review✨️Funny Story by Emily Henry
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I loved this book, my first one by this author that I've absolutely not wanted to put down.
It's a story of 2 couples, 2 roommates, breakups, healing and a sweet meet-cute.
Miles is the MMC and he's the loveliest man, handsome and sweet, with chaotic organisational skills and he falls first.
Daphne is our MFC and has a 5-year plan (until she doesn't) is 100% part of a 'We' so she doesn't do anything outside of that, she is also a children's Librarian and loves it.
I love the story of all the characters and the parts of them that are revealed are really relatable. I always think that makes you like a book more if the characters are somehow more 'real'
This book is definitely one that I would re-read when in a slump or just want a quick heartwarming read.

4/5
I really enjoyed it, which I was aurprised by. Emily EHnry's book are hit and miss for me so I'm glad I enjoyed it.
The first 10% broke me tbh. The exes were so fucking annoying and entitled and I HATED them. I felt so sad for Daphne and Miles! So I love that at the end, Petra and Peter split. Karma is real!
I loved the relationship between Daphne and Miles. Miles seemed to be down bad for Daphne since the beginning, and I wish we've gotten his pov as well. He seems so sweet! And he cares so much!
It had less elements of the fake relationship than what I expected, but I liked it regardless. It was a good story. Emotional and engaging.
Although I wish we didn't have the third act breakup. Seriously, Miles should have said WHY he disappeared, instead of letting Daphne assume he was with Petra. Come on, TALK! I hate a misunderstanding! So I couldn't give more than 4 stars. But I liked the story very much. And I loved how we've come a full circle: at the beginning, Daphne loved when her ex told the story of how they fell in love and got together. In the end, Miles knew how much Daphne loved telling their story instead. I loved that.

theres truly nothing like an emily henry to rip you from the clutches of a book slump. funny story definitely fulfilled its duty.
emily henry continues to write the most unbelievable concepts for romances in such a believable way that it feels so cathartic to read. daphne and miles had such a lovely progression as a couple but also individually. the end brought tears to my eyes.
the dialogue, as always, was so excellently done. i constantly found myself giggling and kicking my feet like a middle schooler. this woman delivers every single time.
in conclusion… this may be my favorite emily henry book… which is a crazy statement.
also! shoutout to miles bc he deserves it… having to move on to a book with no miles is going to be difficult but i can do hard things.
