Funny Story

by Emily Henry

And my happiness is very important. You heard Barb and Lenore.”

I’m trying not to be unreasonably grumpy, but this is fuck-everything early, even for me,

You can’t force a person to show up, but you can learn a lesson when they don’t. Trust people’s actions, not their words. Don’t love anyone who isn’t ready to love you back. Let go of the people who don’t hold on to you. Don’t wait on anyone who’s in no rush to get to you.

And it makes being around you feel like—like standing in sunlight.”

and he makes that easy, this sunlit man.

“Funny story…” he says, but he doesn’t go on, just watches me and waits. He knows how much I love to tell it.

might be my favorite Emily Henry book so far <3
