It‘s National Book Lover‘s Day, one of my favorite days!
I started to read at the age of four, self taught, and books have been my life savers. They gave me hope when I had none, taught me to be kind, honesty and empathy when I received none & changed my life.
They shaped me into the person that I am today & have provided to me so many wonderful people and memories!
Books are truly life transforming! Happy National Book Lover‘s Day!

This is my 5th time reading this book, so I don‘t think a full review is necessary. There are so many parts I still find very funny or highly emotional, even the fifth time through. And Julia Whelan‘s perfect narration just heightens all of that.
If you haven‘t read it, please do.
This book surprised me. The prologue was explaining the typical characters and tropes and plot lines of the ‘hallmark movie‘ style books. But, it worked. And the story was really good.

I get so sucked into these rom-com books. Even though they are predictable and do follow certain tropes, I nevertheless find them difficult to put away.
I did appreciate the intertwining love stories here - between the two lead characters but also the familial love between the sisters.

Emily Henry's books are perfect. I read through them with a constant smirk on my face and the occasional tear. She nails snarky banter and can accurately depict the littlest moments that make a relationship, like the lingering warmth from a kiss on a forehead or the feeling of a heartbeat through a wool sweater. She gives the same giddy happiness as Gilmore Girls. Her characters always stay with me long after the book is over 💖
It is the most perfect weather to sit outside and start a new book today! 🌞😎 How could I not?
Happy Earth Day, friends! I hope you have the chance to enjoy something beautiful today. 🌼

I am not much of a romance reader but someone gave me this book and I needed something lighter to read. I liked the beginning, then skimmed through the romance bits in the middle and was feeling “blah” by the end because all these types of books are really predictable. The so-so rating is more because i don‘t enjoy romance, but I am sure that those who do would give this a pick.
My first Emily Henry book, enjoyed this one. Looking forward to my next one.
Got books from the library. So excited to read them. Dont know which one to read though.
This book reminded me of the 90s rom com “you‘ve got mail”. It was light, funny, but swallowed you up into the story. I loved it. It‘s a love story about people who love books. The best part were the book references in the book. 10/10 recommend!
I think this is my favorite Emily Henry so far. Loved that this book was really two love stories, and I was just as invested in the sisters one as the romantic one.
What a thoroughly lovely book! I loved the characters, the setting, the plot…everything. Nora made me laugh and cry (literally like a baby at the end), and fall along with her. The writing was excellent, the sexual tension was peak, and the spice hit just the right note. My first Emily Henry read, but definitely not my last!
Excellent chemistry, family dynamics, a town I have actually visited….check all the boxes!!🤍💙🤍💙 I really enjoyed this one and wasn‘t ready for it to end. Emily Henry will definitely be a new go-to!!

Ended the week and weekend with a nice glass of Malbec and my bookspin pick.
Usually not my thing, but I‘m looking for something light and fun! What do you suggest?!

Waited until after the big game to have a picnic of Valentine treats, chocolate strawberry and homemade spritz cookies while reading with the pup. I received the leopard print wrap as a gift for Christmas and it is the coziest to wear and snuggle up with on a chilly night.
Didn‘t think that I was going to enjoy this book but I am@so enjoying this one I read over half of it since yesterday

Very sassy, lots of sarcasm and lots of fun. I really like this one as it wasn‘t too sappy and it went with and against the typical tropes.
I‘ll definitely pick up more Henry in the future!
Nora works as an agent for authors. Her most famous author had placed the setting of one of her most famous books in Sunshine Falls. One day Nora‘s sister decides that they should go on a sister trip there for 4 weeks. Once there, Nora meets an editor she has meet before and didn‘t like. Maybe things will change this time? And will Nora manage to relax for 4 weeks?

This book is beautiful! It has plenty of laugh out loud moments and steamy scenes but it ended in the most perfect way. I couldn‘t stop reading tonight and I‘m so glad I did. I laughed with the characters, I cried with them and I cheered them on to the last page.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
This book was perfect. Absolutely perfect. I don‘t think a book has ever made me laugh out loud so much. I cried in the last chapter the happiest of tears. Nora and Charlie fit together so well. As an older sister, I also related very much to Nora‘s relationship with her younger sister, Libby. The audiobook reader was incredible. Such great acting skills. I am going to buy this book from a real bookstore; it‘s only right considering the story!
My November TBR.

Home sick today & read/listened to the whole thing. Best way to spend a sick day. Fourth time reading it, and it‘s still perfect.
Warm-hearted, fun, and the banter!! The writing wasn't great, but the characters more than make up for it. Enjoyable and light

My last read by Emily Henry. Just as non rom com as the previous
two novels . The humour (was it even that?!?) just didn't do it for me.
