Funny Story by Emily Henry is a story of forgiveness and self-learning. Both the MFC and MMC go on a journey of self discovery and understanding in two similar ways and as the reader, you watch their unfolding as both individuals and in unison. I thinK Henry did a great job depicting a rather realistic couple absent the fantasy style aura that many romance novels offer. I didn’t always agree with the characters’ choices or even the outcome, but I can understand their perspective and can appreciate how and why they made certain decisions.
