Funny Feelings by Tarah DeWitt

5.0

I wholeheartedly love and adore this book. Farley and Meyer brought me inexplicable comfort. I was smiling, laughing, swooning and feeling all of the above because these characters took over my heart!

There’s just something so deeply comforting about a couple who simply love being together and have such a genuine friendship which seems so mundane but I can’t help but rejoice over that simple fact. Fee and Meyer’s story felt so real and tangible because of how their relationship developed. It feels like a breath of fresh air honestly.

I absolutely love Farley. I found myself crackling at some of the things she said forgetting she’s a literal comedian. I appreciate how her character was written in such an unapologetic way that truly showcased characteristics that typically have such a bad rep, especially in women. Meyer was perfect. His dedication to the people he love is so inspiring. Though he grumpy and over-protective, he truly have a heart of gold that I could feel off the pages. Yet another single dad who took over my heart. Also how could I not talk about Hazel because I love that little girl. I enjoyed every scene she was in.

Though this was romance book, the ASL and mental health representation was equally as important in this story and I believe the author did a great job at solidifying her message in her words.

This book made me so so happy and it was exactly what I needed on a gloomy sunday <3
