I didn't know what to expect when I started this, but the premise that it's marketed, and that's that.
However, this novel made me feel seen in many ways. The whole 'transported to your favorite book' premise is exactly what I've been dreaming and something I want or wish or pray for myself *cough *Sylus *cough.
Other than that, I've been hit with heavy Emily Henry vibes but way lighter, especially when I read Beach Read.
Another thing I love is that Eileen's voice is definitely prominent, or should I say notable, because of how relatable she is for me as a reader, especially in the whole plot for me and I really love that for this.
Furthermore, the relationship with the characters, especially with Pru, I really appreciated it. The same goes for the other important characters. It was well executed, in my opinion.
For Anderson and Eileen's romance, on the other hand, I don't think it was slow burn? I definitely felt and think that their chemistry department was lacking? Even if that's the case, I really did still enjoy the romance. I also think that I unconsciously have been aware of what's the twist is along the way and at the same time, and it is quite wrong and right in some aspects.
Also, the shock when Liam appeared at the end almost made me feral BECAUSE WHY?? I'm already dealing with a heartbreak of Eileen leaving the town and thinking THIS WAS NOT HEA??
But our glorious author made it up to me and gave us that well-deserved HEA that every reader should have ๐ซถ
Overall, I enjoyed this so much. I'm definitely reading more from this author, and PLEASE SOMEONE WRITE M0RE NOVELS LIKE THIS๐ญ
