I speed read this with the audiobook on 2x speed b/c of a book club discussion on Sunday and even though I read it so fast, I enjoyed it even more than the other two times I've read it. Emily Henry, you mad genius. I love you ma'am.

Still only 4 stars. I can't fully give it 5 stars cause the miscommunication really frustrates me. Also the buildup to the huge fall out was more interesting than the actual fall out. It was very anticlimactic for me. I wish that Poppy and Alex had better communication and just pushed through. There was so much time lost. Anyway, good romance, love the best friends to lovers trope.

I'm not sure I understand anything that happened it this book. It is all so bizarre and just downright weird. I would look up from the book after reading for a while and have to readjust to the real world. This book was so disorienting to read. It made me cringe almost the entire time. Can someone explain to me if this book is just one big metaphor or if Samantha is an unreliable narrator or what. Cause I'm still confused.

This is maybe a perfect romance. I love it even more the second time around. I am extremely annoyed that no one believed Olive about Dane. It made me so mad that she was by herself. The rest of the book was good though, minus the whole Dane drama that just pissed me off. I love Ethan (mostly) and I love how he treats Olive. This book is so good to get you out of a reading slump or to read when you're sad and need to fill the void. Highly recommend.

Wowowowowowowowow. I read this book so fast. I am so completely transformed after reading this story. I will never be the same. I will think about this every day. I am in love with this book. Emily Henry, you mad genius. I am in love with the way you write, with the characters you create. They are all so special to me. Thank you for giving us a peek into your magnificent brain. I am never shutting up about this book. Never.

Ummm I'm not sure I know what happened in this book. I enjoyed the journey and I love Natalie and Beau but idk if I understand this book at all. Much too sci-fi for my brain.

Wow. I'm in love with this book. I love these characters soooOOooOOO much. Everything about it was fantastic. (Well, scratch that, I did nOT appreciate Rosie and Anam being little b words and going behind Mina's back. And Rosie's whole speech about Mina not being a good friend?? I was livid. I would have really appreciated you communicating your concerns sooner and in a less dramatic way. And Anam, what is your freaking problem girl your sister can't put her life on hold for you chill tf out. And let's not even mention Mina's childish, stupid ass parents. I have no kind words for them at all.) Anyway, I loved this book and I will patiently wait until Tashie writes another book.

Again, I give this book a million stars. Firstly, Karina is a fantastic woman and I am so proud of her. I rooted for her from the beginning. I love her. Ace is such a sweetheart. He always respected Karina and her boundaries and never pushed. He is so kind and patient with her. I love him and I'm happy I got to see his growth too. I will never recommend a YA romance as much as this one. It's perfect. Thank you Tashie. I love you.

Wow. This book was fantastic. "Self-help" is not my genre of choice but this one really hit home. It didn't feel like a "self-help" book at all. It felt like a therapy session. It was so enlightening and powerful.

"Overcoming self-doubt is all about believing we're enough and letting go of what the world says we're supposed to be and supposed to call ourselves"(pg 115).

Such a beautiful book. Han Kang really knows how to make you feel so many things at once. The meditation on white objects is very well done. The way she uses those white objects to describe grief and the human experience is so brilliant. I am entranced by her writing.
