Emily Henry definitely has a way of capturing her audience with funny quips and relatable characters. As a non-romance reader, I figured that one of the most hyped romance author's out there would be a good place to start to dip my toes in the romance waters. And I was surprisingly not disappointed.
I loved Nora and Libby's sibling relationship. At times I wanted to shake Nora's shoulder's to make her realize her sister needs to make her own mistakes and live her own life, yet as the book moved further into the plot I can understand her need to always protect her sister. I was easily captured by the romance between Nora and Charlie, it wasn't slow burn like I expected it to be but I enjoyed the build up none the less.
What I enjoyed most about Book Lover's had to be Emily Henry's way of both poking at and incorporating the cliche's of Hallmark Movies. The city slicker going to a small town, making a big impact, and falling in love. We get that but with some twists and turns along the way.
I would definitely give Emily Henry's other books a try!
