I think Emily Henry was in my house, studying me and picking apart my brain when coming up with Harriet's character.
As the younger sister who craves parental acceptance and as an extrovert who is forced to be an introvert, this book hit so close to home. So many things that Harriet felt about her home life are things that I struggle with too. The fear of losing your friends so you just push them away to get it over with is also so close to home.
I can't thank EmHen enough for writing this and for me being able to read it during a chapter of my life where I needed it most.
