Reading this book makes me want to decrease my star ratings for Emily Henry's other books. This feels like the natural evolution of Emily Henry as a writer and I'm so here for it.
I'm seeing a lot of people say they didn't like the flashbacks and Margaret's backstory, but I loved it. It was an effective way to tell two stories that converge into a very satisfying conclusion.
This book did tackle some fairly serious topics, but it always felt tactful. I went in expecting a fluffy book lovers-esque rom-com and got so much more than I bargained for.
If you enjoy creative storytelling, unique character development, and a rewarding love story, this book is a great match for you.
