Ugh Emily Henry does not miss.

This book made me feel insane as I read it. Alex and Poppy’s relationship made my chest ache. I didn’t sob over this book the way I did Beach Read, but I did cry. Poppy’s family hit home for me, her being the youngest, her describing being home sick but also needing to be out of her home town because of her past experiences there — it hurt. Emily Henry wrights such real characters who are so relatable. Also shout out to Alex for being who he is, I’m genuinely obsessed with him.

My only note is that when I initially finished this book I wasn’t enthused about the ending, but I reread that part and it feels right. I couldn’t think of anything that I’d change. Thus — 5 stars. (although I’d probably give it like 9.5/10)

If you like Friends-to-Lovers this book is for you!! It’s about the history. It’s about the knowing each other so unbelievable well.

This book spoke to me.
