Okay wow. I loved this book SO MUCH. I'm currently recovering from sobbing at work to the ending. I love how all of Emily Henry's books are so different and this one seemed even more genre-spanning with it's flashbacks and historical fiction subplot. Just everything in this book resonated with me. The complicated family dynamics really hit me. The writing was of course beautiful and emotional and the characters were vivid and complete and perfect. Everything in this book pulled at my heartstring and just spoke to my soul.

I don't want to spoil anything, but I went in blind and highly recommend that. I also love that this is a romance book but with so many additional important themes that all tie together. I love when romance is so big and proud and all the different storylines are equally captivating.

Note: OF COURSE I listened to the audiobook because I cannot experience an EmHen book without this narration. It is magic. I am so sad that I'm finished.

Thanks to the publisher for the free audiobook; my thoughts and review are my own.
