I feel like this was a warm hug from the 90s. I previously picked it up and couldn’t get past the first few pages, but now I’ve finished it, I’m glad I gave it another chance. Don’t get me wrong, I think parts of it should have stayed in the 90s, but the quintessential Rom com vibes are sprinkled throughout this novel. I loved the format (if you liked Love,Rosie you’d like this), and i actually thought the simultaneous timelines worked to its advantage. 
Overall I enjoyed it and I think it helped that it seemed to be exactly what I was in the mood for.
Also, can we appreciate how Lincoln speaks - it’s beautiful.
