Emily Henry did it again!

Funny Story is my new favorite Emily Henry book! I love the characters, I love the romantic chemistry and the friendship chemistry. I love the town, and the vibe, and everything about this book.

Daphne and Miles are so cute, and their story is LITERALLY such a funny story! This is EH’s funniest book yet, and I loved it so much. The set-up of the fake dating is hilarious, and Miles is probably my new favorite book boyfriend.

The family dynamics in the book are great! I love Daphne’s mom, I love Julia, I love all the different types of families we see. I even, somehow, kinda like Starfire (iykyk).

Read this book if you love
πŸ’œ fake dating
πŸ’œ forced proximity 
πŸ’œ strong friendships
πŸ’œ libraries
πŸ’œ being a tourist in your own city
πŸ’œ laughing so hard you wake up your cat

I love this book with my whole heart. 5 stars.

Thank you Berkley Romance for giving my an early copy and the opportunity to learn an honest, voluntary review.
