Book Lovers by Emily Henry
2.0

I’m so sad about this. I don’t know what it is, but after Beach Read, Henry’s books have fallen flat for me. I do love how her characters center books in their lives and even resonate with that as a fellow book lover, but these stories are fizzling out for me halfway through. I thought with this one, I would resonate more as I learned about Nora’s struggles with grief after the passing of her mother, having felt some of the same complications in my own life, but the overall story just didn’t land with me the way I anticipated given all of the hype.
