“Nora.” He just barely smiles. “You’re in books. Of course you don’t have a life. None of us do. There’s always something too good to read.”

If you're looking for a romance book that feels like it's really for young adults and not written for 14-year-old girls dreaming of a typical, unrealistic romance, this is the book for you.
The protagonist of a woman obsessed with her work which she loves, with a complex step that led her to develop an excessive sense of responsibility for things beyond her control and a low self-esteem that makes her have little self-care with her mental health, she is a woman with her priorities very clear, she lives for what she does, her career motivates her and makes her happy, She loves books and lives surrounded by them, she doesn't want children and doesn't dream of a small and quiet life, she loves New York City and its thousands of people, she is a complex character but very easy to empathize with, her previous relationships ended for several reasons but the most important one is that none of her ex-partners wanted the same as her.
We can learn a lot from her character, the process of understanding how the way she dealt with this excessive responsibility for the guilt she hadn't healed and that when she met someone who really had life plans, personalities and desires similar to hers I could connect with him without changing who he was, without making spoilers I think their relationship feels so real and beautiful that it's a little painful to cry the last 40 pages like a baby.
I loved that you both loved the books, you don't know how much I loved it.
The message of these books for me were:
- You don't have to feel bad or unlovable for having life plans other than getting married, having kids and a small, calm life, loving big cities, being crazy about your career and not wanting to have kids makes you just as capable of receiving a beautiful love
- It is a great quality to put your family first but if you don't take care of yourself and pursue your happiness you will not be able to take good care of them.
- When something works with someone you don't have to change or sacrifice any part of yourself, God just makes it happen.
“So if you’re the ‘wrong kind of woman,’ then I’m the wrong kind of man.”
Ver un romance donde ambos tienen ambiciones distintas a tener una familia y tener una vida calmada y pequeña me encanto, si les soy sincera.
Se siento real y eso fue tan lindo que les juro que llore las ultimas 40 páginas.
Con amor ana
