Not my favorite Emily Henry book. “The Story” was incredibly boring to me. I appreciate where it ended up but I just wanted to get back to Alice & Hayden. “The Story” was supposed to be the substance and the romance was supposed to be confetti. But it didn’t grab me that way.

This also reminded me a lot of The Paris Secret, which I hated, so that probably didn’t help.
