First of all, it is important to know and understand that in order to get the feeling Emily Henry's books are known for—that experience of catching yourself crying in the middle of a sentence, having an ache in your chest and thinking, “Okay, Emily, that one felt so personal”—you probably need to have daddy issues. And I mean the kind of issues that come from not having a present father and knowing that the type of relationship you can ask for with him is not the kind you desperately wish you could have.
Second is not her best book (it's not even in the top 3 or 4), but it's still a good book. She knows how to write romance—and do it right.
So, if you read it and didn’t like it: congratulations, you don’t have daddy issues (or maybe you do, but you're not that damaged).
If you did like it: you have daddy issues.
