if a Wes Anderson film, the pirates of the Caribbean, and your favorite historical romance book got together and had a baby it would be this book—in other words, I loved this (4.5/5)
the past and present timeline gave me blue balls at times cause I just wanted shit to happen but god, does Emily Henry breathe new life into the contemporary romance genre
I’ve never dog eared a book so much in my life, truly. Such uniquely complex characters, swoon-worthy dialogue, and a plot that shines like a sun. In short: it’s Dunmore at her best. And that ending? God, someone sedate me.
just as charming as the Hayao Miyazaki film it’s based on!!! even 30+ years after its pub date!!! i am smiling while typing this!!!
idk what to rate this book and that’s an odd feeling for me!! just know I did like it but some things are holding me back from giving it a final review
update:
ok now more than a month later I'm giving this 3 stars, the characters and plot is great but it doesn't have the zest the first one had. Will, I still read the third book in hopes that this was just a minor bump? absolutely!

How rare is it to see yourself in a book, it felt as if little pieces of me were sprinkled across its pages. To witness greatness is to read Taylor Jenkins Reid.
this book made me a full-on Lisa Kleypas stan, and I have no regrets whatsoever (more of a 4.5/5 tbh)
A 397-paged reminder of why I love reading historical romances.
2.75/5 -- Felt like the writers for the last season of GOT got their hands on this book because what kind of final book was that?
Dabos is a master at imagery no doubt, but the last book in this series just felt like a big dud. This series would've majorly benefited if they combined the plot lines of books three and four together, but alas Cie la vie!

Emily Henry has always felt, to me, like a writer who's in a league of her own and while this book is utterly charming and wickedly heartfelt, this novel has left me with an itch I can't seem to scratch. While this book is marketed as a contemporary romance, the book feels more like a story of sisterhood rather than a love story. A fine change of things, and it works, but with two strong witty characters like Nora and Charlie, I wish I got to spend more time with them. In a way, I think this book/plot will be the one that got away for it holds even more potential than its so 360ish pages could provide.
