Book Lovers, definitely surpasses any expectations I had for it. It is *chefs kiss*. Emily Henry has a new fan, I'm ordering her other two books right now. I have committed to read everything she ever writes. 

It gives me Devil Wears Prada (But not Andrea... more like Emily) Hallmark Rom-Com vibes. 

And the male lead is also changed. But still that vibe. 

"𝘚𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘵𝘪𝘮𝘦𝘴, 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘯 𝘸𝘩𝘦𝘯 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘳𝘵 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘭𝘢𝘴𝘵 𝘱𝘢𝘨𝘦 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘬 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘬𝘯𝘰𝘸 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨, 𝘢 𝘣𝘰𝘰𝘬 𝘧𝘪𝘯𝘥𝘴 𝘢 𝘸𝘢𝘺 𝘵𝘰 𝘴𝘶𝘳𝘱𝘳𝘪𝘴𝘦 𝘺𝘰𝘶."

The writing is absolutely spectacular! I was laughing, then I was holding back tears, then I was laughing again. The way she writes the emotional depth is just wonderful. 

This isn't just a fun, romance book about Nora and Charlie. It's a book about family, learning how to put yourself first, and letting go. 

It was so heartwarming, the perfect book to read on a rainy summer day, under a cozy blanket. 

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5
