Emily Henry really doesn't disappoint. I liked this even better than Beach Read and People We Meet On Vacation. Maybe that was because in some ways I identified with Nora and Charlie even more than the other couples. I'm no book editor or literary agent, and I really don't think I'd like to try and survive living in NYC. But I am a book person. I could totally get it when Nora and Libby talked about their childhood and how much they loved the bookstore. (I still remember when the Hastings opened ...more

Nora Stephens & Charlie Lastra

I enjoyed this book. Nora has really sacraficied a lot for the people she loves. So much so, that she doesn't see it as giving anything up as long as they're happy.

She has a meeting with Charlie on one of the suckiest days of her life and things don't go well. She leaves that meeting basically thinking he's an ass.

Things get interesting when they end up in the same small town. They both realize there's a connection there and that they both made some assumptions ab ...more
