god, after reading the hating game, i thought i was in a book slump for rom com lit. But this. THIS CHANGED EVERYTHING.

I wish i have read this sooner this year. Regardless, i'm happy i picked it up and read it. And i'd be happy to read it again. Anything for Gus and January.

I had to laugh when I found out that Gus actually wrote a cult-rom-com because I actually thought that it was a joke loll

Avevo proprio bisogno di leggere questo libro in questo periodo, e non ho nulla di cui lamentarmi. 
Mi è piaciuto molto il focus sulla questione happy ending, perché lo si cerca (di dare agli altri, di immaginarlo per sé) e anche su quanto sia o meno ingenuo cercarlo sempre. Inutile dire che su questo ho trovato molta sintonia con January (anche nel suo timore di essere ingenua per questo), ma  Gus mi ha presa alla sprovvista e colpita giusto dove faceva male 💔
Una menzione speciale a Sonya che, davvero, mi ha fatto male pure lei alla fine (e okay, io sono irrimediabilmente attratta dai personaggi che sono "l'Altra Donna").

It's a good fun read. THE ANGST I SWEAR!!! In some parts of the book, I found it quite similar to Books lovers (read that first) and I really loved that book. So when I found those similarities I was put off a little. Anyway, I enjoyed it anyway.

Emotional, smart, and unexpectedly deep. I loved the chemistry, the past connection, and how real their journey felt. The ending was everything.
