This book was a struggle to get into. I don’t think it picked up until really nearly 30% of the way through. Now that I have finished, I realize that the slowness was intentional to bring you into the life of Addie.
Luckily, I told myself I would wait till the halfway point to see if it picked up at all and when it did pick up it took flight. I won’t give away what happens but to anyone who is struggling to read this book please press forward. It’s very much worth it in the last half of the book is incredibly enjoyable.

I really wanted to give it a chance, especially cuz it was recommended to me. But I am so bored 😭 I do not like Addie that much, she doesn’t have a personality. Does the book have a plot or is it just Addie wandering NY (or other parts of the world)

For some reason I’m struggling a bit. The premise is interesting and there’s some beautiful writing but I feel a bit bored - I keep dozing every 10 pages or so. Going to keep pushing since so many people love this book.

This is my second book by Emily Henry. Another easy to get into, funny, and enjoyable story. I now feel like Emily Henry is palette cleanser, just lovely cutesy stories to enjoy.
