˗ˏˋ ★ REVIEW ★ ˎˊ˗

Want a book with bookish tropes but with a twist?  If this ever got a Hallmark movie adaptation I would for sure watch it… they might just have cut the spicy parts 😂

The banter was like most of this author’s other works, and absolute hit.  It was a fun read with detailed and lovable characters.  I loved how this ended and really enjoyed finally reading a romance where the woman didn’t give up the career she clearly loved just to move to a small town after two seconds of an insta-love romance. 

Truly loved the vibe of this book so much.  All the shark comments and the mentions of Bigfoot erotica had me laughing so hard.

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.
