I enjoyed the characters and the relationship with family but I found this book very slow and also that not a lot was going on.

Emily Henry always makes great things happen. I knew this would be good before I even opened it. I think this book is a relatable exploration of living and falling in love even through grief and brokenness. 

I will say some of the true romance of this novel felt a little over the top for me to the point that I didn't resonate with this one nearly as much as the last couple Henry books I read. Still good and worth reading though!

Seems like grief often accommodates 5-star reads for me. Processing such a monumental life event is so important, and having those who love and support you there for it is equally as important. 
That and fucking against a bookshelf...🥵🥵🥵
