I spent so much time procrastinating reading Book Lovers afraid that after loving so much Beach Read and PWMOV I wouldn't love this Emily Henry book, and fuck that, I should have procrastinated because this broke me. I feel Nora so much, I feel how she puts everyone first, I feel how she never lets herself be happy, because that's what I do. And despite how much I love other romance books I keep saying, Emily Henry doesn't write romance books, she writes real people books with romance on it. And that's exactly what I love about her. How real her characters feel, how all of them have their flaws, Nora, Charlie, Libby, Sally... Every single one of them so fleshed out with their ups and downs. Plus I lived for the Wuthering Heights references, a well deserved 5/5
