Though I don’t often reach for contemporary romance as a genre and while I did not much enjoy Henry’s Happy Place, this was a delightful surprise! 
Reading Funny Story felt like watching an early 2000's romcom with your best friends. I actually laughed out loud in a few places. I liked watching our characters both grow individually and together. It was a perfect quick summer read to take outside and enjoy the season. I might give Henry’s backlist another shot!
