I loved this book SO much! And not just because of my nostalgia for libraries. Daphne and Miles feel so lovingly written. Emily Henry’s bantering dialogue is once again top notch! Henry also explores themes of how parents can shape our view of ourselves and the type of love we think we deserve. It’s handled with great care and wit and one of the most interesting aspects of the book. Funny Story is on its way to being my favorite romance novel of the year!
