THIS BOOK IS A MUST READ

It is not just a romance, but it also explores the bond of sisterhood, family, balance of work/home life, and understanding the importance of following your passions. 

The romance is also super cute between Nora and Charlie! Nora allowing herself to explore romance while understanding her role as big sister felt super relatable. Emily Henry's writing with sparkling dialogue, complex characters felt so real. 

read if you enjoy books, exploring family dynamics, and cute romances that are just a little more than a hallmark movie.

Emily Henry's ability to blend romance with grief and trauma continues to absolutely chew me up and spit me out. How she manages to stuff these books with so much hope and heart and character, while still writing some of the most laugh out loud banter I've ever read is slightly incomprehensible. Nora is one of my favorite contemporary heroines in such a long time, and Henry does not shy away from her flaws in the slightest. Have I mentioned the banter?? It's worth reading just for that, trust me.

Thank you to NetGalley and Libro.fm for the advanced reading/listening copies.

I could not have loved this book more! This is the first Emily Henry book I've read and I'm moving more of hers up to the top of my TBR. The characters were wonderfully complex. I wasn't ready for the book to end and I hope some of these side characters have their own stories ;)

The narrator of the audiobook was fantastic. The timing was perfect - not too fast, not too slow.
