Was very worried this story would be so cliche but the author really put so much nuances into each character it was such a lovely read!

I think Emily Henry can only write one fully fleshed out character  at a time and it really showed in this book trying to write an ensemble. The thesis of the book came way too late and out of left field and I feel there is actually a good story about Harriet in here underneath Henry’s struggle of trying to make me care about her supporting characters.

Was for a book club and on top of moving just didn’t get to it in time- def eventually want to read!
