The book involves a group of school friends who years later are still in regular contact until after a pub quiz night of the four friends Susie gets runover.  Eve learns that her other friends were hiding secrets from her.  She tries her best to deal with the funeral and the news that came out after Susie died, dealing with her curt brother and having to go to Edinburgh to try and find Susies Father who has Dementia.

It mostly deals with the loss of Susie and trying to find her Father as well as learning about Susie and her Brothers childhood, but she does get together with someone at the end of the book.

I was not sure it's a romantic book when I started, but I feel like this is one of the best descriptions of a grief I have read about.

very good as a almost not romance book and pretty moving. couldnt put it down. the romance was sometimes the weakest point (i have a hard time believing that fin has capacity for being so stand-offish and charming?) but i liked the ed plotline. that was WILD. definitely made me tear up with the mentions of grief

Holy Schnikes.
HOLY SCHNIKES.
I did not only feel connected to this book, I felt nailed down by it. I finished Emily Henry's latest and was on the quest for the same transparent, raw effort of life and THIS DELIVERED in spades. I would recommend this romantical novel to everyone.

This was a very easy read and would be the perfect plot for a romcom movie. Some plot twists I didn’t expect. The story was built really well but felt rushed at the end, which was a dissapointing way to close off the storyline. It was like the author wanted to be conscious of the length but needed to wrap up all the story questions. was happy with the ending though. Either way, recommend this if you’re looking for a book to read before bed / on vacation.
