However, the bigger issue I have is that I hate reading about terrible mental health rep. All the characters disregard how unwell they are as "the way it is" which it doesn't need to be. Further, the main relationships were just absolutely toxic and I'm tired of hearing about unhealthy dynamics.

However, after Charlie and Nora are together for a fling and are basically just waiting for Nora to leave to break up, it gets a bit boring. The author obviously wanted to make it more angsty and come up with a reason why it wouldn’t work, but it didn’t feel strong enough to talk about it for as long as she did. Based on the genre, we all knew where it was going, and that the breakup wouldn’t last (which is why I’m not a fan of these late breakups with a reconnection as the ending).
I also thought Libby could be pretty annoying, but not something that makes the book unreadable.
Besides that, the last chapter or two was good, and I loved the way Charlie surprised Nora in New York and what he said to her.
Minor: Toxic relationship, Death of parent, Sexual harassment, Death, Pregnancy, and Alcohol
