This is my first Emily Henry book and even though I enjoyed the style of writing and found the characters nice, overall I thought the pace was slow and it was just an ok book. I'm no sure if my reaction is because my expectations were too high or if I just was a little bored at times but I enjoyed it enough that I would give this writer another chance

This book was faster paced than the previous ones but there was an underlying uneasiness that just kept me away from a 5 but I am loving this series and I'm so happy there are so many books to read
