my fav of emily henry’s books! i was excited to read every page. i think the way henry builds her characters to be imperfect in this novel is both endearing and relatable. we are complex & layered beings with complex & layered emotions that can be simultaneously foul & lovely. this story’s characters wrestle with the good & ugly in themselves and the people around them in very human ways.

also, i love the dynamic between january and her best friend, shadi. their relationship made me cry (good tears).
