I think Emily Henry's books just get better and better. She's going to be an auto by for me from here on out. I love how her books bring me all the feelings.

I started off disgusted with Peter for being a jerk and doing what he did to Daphne. I loved Daphne the whole way through the book. Miles was perfect and sweet and I love that he really enjoyed Daphne's company and always put her first. How they came to live together was a tragic heartbreak for both of them but their story is so heartwarmin ...more

Daphne & Miles

I couldn't even imagine finding myself in a situation like this. Daphne moved to be with her fiancé only for him to later dump her for his best friend. She had a very short turnaround to pack her crap and move and he was such a jerk about it.

The best friend she was left for also dumped her boyfriend, Miles. Miles who spent years trying to be good enough for someone who didn't deserve it, but at least he wasn't homeless.

Miles and Daphne become roommates, then friends, then more.

Is there anything better than an Emily Henry novel narrated by Julia Whelan?

Cute story. I was snorting with laughter quite a bit in this book. The two main characters were a gem. I loved watching their growth throughout the story. Not just as a possible couple, but also individually. The side characters were a hoot and I would read any story written for Ashley or Julia.

This one was so good. I loved the way their relationship developed, how he was part of the community - and helped her integrate, and the side characters. Overall, a compelling return to good romcom after the last book which ended up being disappointing.
