    We got some great yearning in this one, folks! I saw this book for the first time at least a year ago and was happy to stumble upon it again to finally read it. The story has a lot of heart, I felt for all the characters, but it did feel slightly hollow. Maybe I'm numb from everything that's happening in the world, but it was like the flame was behind glass and I couldn't feel it's heat. I'd still recommend this book but I don't think it will be a top read for me this year.

    When this was good, it was really good, but the second half felt a little unhinged. It was a cute and quirky rom com until the third act was an extremely traumatic shift in tone. I was frustrated with how things fell apart and came back together, but I still smiled and laughed way too many times while reading this book to not rate it well.

    If you’re not a proud millennial, you may hate the references. I loved most of them but I have a hard time believing this woman knows so many people with over the top themed weddings. You have been warned.
