Soooo good. It’s a little like When Harry Met Sally, but with characters that are both a little more flawed and a little more relatable, and the whole story is better for it. It’s an emotional roller coaster but definitely worth the ride!

I had to take a break from this book 50% of the way through because it put me in a rut. I’m glad I finished it, but it was hard to get through. I didn’t like that every chapter left off on a cliffhanger and the next chapter jumped a year into the future. I felt like a lot of cliffhangers were never fully “wrapped up”. I also kept finding myself thinking “I can tell a man wrote this book” every time Emma’s appearance was described.

this feels a lot like a couple of my all-time favourite books i've ever read which is probably part of why i enjoyed this so much but it isn't perfect. just to get this out of the way, it was annoyingly obvious that this was written by a man at parts - emma was mostly well written (i kept forgetting she was written by a man) but this showed a lot in the way that the other women were written in this book. just straight up caricatures. it also felt like it would've done numbers on tumblr (for the same reasons The Fault in Our Stars did) but despite all of that i really loved this novel. i loved the characters - they were complex and flawed but they felt so real and it made it even more frustrating to watch them constantly fuck up. the ending hit me like a truck and i'm so glad i picked this up. this is (almost) everything i wanted Talking at Night to be!
