“In every universe, it’s you for me. Even if it’s not me for you.”
This is a story of friendship and how they survive the test of time and distance. Of personal growth, on finally choosing what makes You happy, not other people. Of love, whether you end up together or not, somewhere at some point someone was your person and you were theirs. This is a story about the pain of growing up and growing apart, and sometimes it was so raw that I had a hard time breathing.
I think among all the Emily Henry books I’ve read this is the one I liked the most. For a book called Happy Place this sure crushed my heart in so many different ways.
