I usually hate second chance romance with miscommunication but Emily Henry nailed it. It’s so much more than petty miscommunication but how certain fears and habits are instilled in every one of us from our parents and experiences. I loved that Harriet finding her happy place is not just about Wyn, but about her group of friends too. It’s shows all kinds of love and where Harriet and her friends thrive as well as fall short. It was a beautiful story about love, fear, grief, life, and most importantly finding the people and places that make you happy. 

Also Emily Henry as always did a fantastic job with evolving her side characters and not forgetting about them for the romance. They are all very much entertained and I loved everyone in the friend group! I also really enjoyed the past and future parallel plot lines!
