Thank you NetGalley, Stephanie Perkins, and Macmillan Publishing for the opportunity to read and review this ARC. 
I absolutely adored this cozy romance story. I loved the characters, I was entranced by the library/bookstore vibes and setting, and I truly cared what happened to them. I was all in for the entire time I read this book.. my only real critique though, and cause for being a 4 star instead of a 5 star read, was that I felt the end was rushed… and a bit abrupt. I wanted some real closure and maybe an epilogue of life afterwards… where is Macon’s mom, how does life look after they finally figure it all out etc…
