    Romance has never been my favorite thing to read, but I didn't hate reading this book. I enjoyed the beginning a lot, funny banter, great friendships, and obviously an INSANE ex. The 2nd half of the book started to feel like a more typical romance and it lost me a bit (no fault from the book here obviously as it was supposed to be!). I don't regret the read even though it isn't my usual genre đŸ€·â€â™€ïž If I am ever in the mood again I may even return for Beach Read by Emily Henry.

    Thoughts from 8% (end of chp 2)

    I have never read this genre of book. I am through chapter 2 and not sure how I am feeling haha. I also was not expecting it to be so long, my Kobo says 10 more hours 😅

  • For those who use Libby...

    When your loan is about to end and you're not even halfway through the book, do you power through and finish the book asap or do you place a hold again?

    It is quite literally fantastic. If it weren't for this I would have never known that Jake Abel narrates Midnight Sun.

    “He studies me with the wary concern of veterinarian examining a dog who just scarfed down a full espresso chocolate cake” đŸ€ŁđŸ€Ł I had to stop and re-read that, what an analogy lol

    Miles and Daphne are so cute. I'm giggling and kicking my feet over them.

    One of my biggest problems with hetero/straight romance has always been the MMC, I always find them insufferable and can never get past it (I am a man-hater, I mean that in the most respectful way possible😭 Men are usually my least fav part of a book). I don't feel that way about Miles right now, which is refreshing!! I was planning to just choke down whatever the MMC brought to the book so I could experience Emily Henry, but I am even enjoying his part a bit. Peter on the other hand 😭😭😭😭 Diabolical behavior. The final boss of red flags!!! Petra what are you even doing!!!

    New to Emily Henry

    I haven't finished this books yet, but I am enjoying it so far! I knew this author was very popular but just never got around to picking anything up by her. This was my book club's pick for the month so that is the reason I am reading it now. Anyways, what is everyone's favorite Emily Henry book? I am not a huge romance reader so could I skip out on her other books? Or would I miss out on one of her better books?

  • When do you write reviews?

    How long do you guys wait between reading a book and writing a review? Historically, i've done so immediately, but I often find myself coming back to my review and editing it after i've sat with it for a little while, especially if I engage in forums/other content and realise that I have misunderstood something or there was a little more nuance than I picked up on.
