I saw the news about this book being turned into a Hallmark movie back in October, which brought it to my attention, so I immediately added it to my tbr and finally sat down to listen to it now.
It's EXACTLY the type of silly romance book I love. The vibes matched Puck and Prejudice, which is another new release I fell in love with, so it's no wonder this one worked for me too.
I also loooove the time travel trope, which we didn't exactly get here, not in the classic sense anyway, since Griffin's been a statue for centuries, but he's still a person from the past who ended up in the modern world, so in my mind it's time travel adjacent.
Her Knight at the Museum was so funny, and straight up adorable. I loved the narration, the historical references, Griffin being a pure ray of sunshine and his absolute devotion to Emily...HE WAS SO DOWN BAD GUYS, I lived for his PoVs.
Emily was like "he'll probably meet more women and leave me", meanwhile Griffin was planning their whole future inside his head, as any proper romance book hero should.
There was a little conflict near the end that wasn't really needed, but it didn't ruin the book for me, so I guess it can stay.
I'm so excited for the movie now, I hope it'll be out soon!! And I hope Bryn Donovan keeps writing romance books just like this one, I require more.
