No Miscommunication-trope!!!
Emily Henry manages to create a good dialogue between characters while adding sarcasm and wit. She is creating a great mix and a good balance of bantering whilst communicating in serious situations.
She also nails the contemporary romance genre by giving the main character a purpose. It gives a rom-com feeling without having a bore while reading. There is no dwelling on unrelated scenes without a plot in sight.
The dramatic peek is created by something rather unexpected, while the solution is (I think) pretty obvious. Here applies: The reader might think it is obvious, but in a real-life situation, it might come to mind, but it would be too much to ask.
I think the main characters are lovable and reading about someone in the book business is fun. Finally, there is a play about us.
