I Love how this book is about family
I love how this book is about friendship
I love how this book is about finding yourself
I love how each character has their burden to carry
I love how they all fit in perfectly to each other
I love the idea of a happy place
I love the question of how our childhood shapes us
I love the focus on different parents
I love that even the people with great parents showed their struggles
I love Wyn and Harriet and Sabrina and Parth and Cleo and Kimmy
I love that Emily Henry surprises me with every book she writes

Don’t love the last few chapters but you know what, they’re important and real to the story.
