I liked the character dynamics, but the main romance fell second to the reflections on how previous relationships are going now (even the pair from the book I really didn't like, deeply charmed me here). I loved the main character of this one independently, but I didn't feel the chemistry I wanted from them together, despite their delightful introduction and obvious ways that they match each other. 

re: the epilogue, I'm now desperate for a spin-off about how Henry and Artemis happened!
