I can see why so many people loved this one! Contemporary romance is often a hit or miss for me (I'll watch the movies all day long, but when it comes to books I tend to get a little bored in this genre). But I see why people love Emily Henry so much, and if I want to read some romance I can totally see myself picking up her other books at some point. 

I loved the story and characters and found it all to be refreshing and interesting. I think my only issue was that the writing didn't always feel engaging enough for me, I can't really put my finger on what it was. So, it took me a while to finish, but I enjoyed it overall!
