Funny Story by Emily Henry

emotional funny medium-paced

5.0

Miles and Daphne have been both recently suffered break ups and in fact, theirs exes are now dating each other. They were practically strangers but circumstances has them living together at this emotional time in their lives and we see how they become friends and support  each other.

This book has fake dating, small town romance and brilliant banter. It is a funny, moving and romantic story with Henry's typical character journey to self discovery and acceptance. I loved the wonderful bookish setting of the library, the great protagonists and brilliantly crafted side characters. I think this is a serious contender for top spot of my Emily Henry reads.

Emily Henry is definitely one of my favourite authors, I have loved every single book of hers, they never fail to make me smile, reflect on life and think about something I hadn't necessarily considered. I also find that when I relate to a character, she manages to get the feelings that I often struggle to get into words down in such a flawless way.

Thank you to Viking books for my review copy of this one that is out in April 2024.
