Funny Story
by Emily Henry
Reading this while having a mental soundtrack of Oskar Linnros hjälpte nog inte las absolutas ganas de LLORAR, heavingly, from the part w Daphne’s dad onward :’) <’3
I’ve had SO many STRONG emotions throughout this book, ESPECIALLY since D’s dad showed up, that I know I need a moment for this all to marinade <‘3
Could REALLY relate to Daphne throughout, which I also think contributes to the roller coaster emotions crashing around while reading this - I felt many times I WAS her, in this book, I was in her literal skin in ways that feel closer than usual. Miles pointing out some of her “flaws”/patterns without me even noticing she did them, made me also go, “Wait, we’re similar as hell - do I also do them? xD”. A lot of the trauma responses are the same, the root feeling of LONELINESS too. This has touched me in ways I hope stick with me for a long long time. I hope to maybe start viewing the world and my place in it differently. I’m especially talking in the ways of not always seeking out the danger or consequences and instead being able to be free, in the moment, enjoying it fully, knowing I’m safe, 90% of the days of my life 🩷
Also LOVE the rep of her being new in town and finding her way there - SO relatable in so many ways I can’t even bring them up - it’s all right there on the page 😎 makes me feel the continuity of hopefulness for Malmö which I’ve started feeling these last few months 🩷
Miles - the sweetest, tenderest character EVR. Chivalry isn’t dead!! New book bf definitely unlocked 😉
Also, I found multiple times throughout that this was in need of an extra proofread and minor (men många bäckar små 😅) editing 🥰
This hit a little too close to home for me, both with Daphne and Miles inner struggles. I think that also contributed to my sad feelings (along with Mr Linnros😜), and my wishes for escapism - which I found and ADORED and happy cried and squealed over in the first 150 pages approx - were a bit squandered after Daphne’s dad bit. Also, I feel the romance fell into the background more after this, like it wasn’t the main focus anymore. Or, much more probable, the events of her dad, D forgetting Ashleigh’s birthday etc, probably just took a lot of mental focus and was brought to the front of my mind. But, more than the escapism - which is always nice 🩷 - I think I’ve found something more valuable through this emotional roller coaster ride. Something I hope will stick with me from here on out and evolve ✨
Also, the ending? Absolutely crying 🥹 Full circle bby ✨🩷✨
Thank you ✨🩷✨ for all of it, first page to last ✨🩷✨
Bought this @ Ica Maxi V.Hamnen 27/8-25 after ordering it on Amazon, arriving the same day mind you 😜 in the wrong edition, so returned it just an hour or two after opening the package, and went in to Ica and bought this con mis dos ovarios y un 20% descuento 😜🤭😜
