”I thought about taking a video of myself giving you a lap dance, but I don’t have anything to mount your phone on, so this was the next best thing.”

“I will happily go back into the woods, find some sticks, and build you a tripod, Daphne.”

About a year ago, someone I love told me they really enjoyed this book.

A year later, I might just be bumping everything else she recommends up my list, because this Emily Henry I originally had no intention of reading is now my favourite Emily Henry.

A POV character who is flawed but not (too) infuriating, a crushworthy male main character, an unhinged but somewhat  believable rom-com premise, chemistry off the charts, and laughing while kissing LAUGHING WHILE KISSING.

Miles Nowak, I love you.

That is all.

Gotta give it to Emily Henry, she knows how to wrap up a book. Her finales balance warmth, humor, and just the right amount of emotional punch, making the journey feel worth it every single time.
