Another really good book by Taylor Jenkins Reid. I'm glad it ended how I hoped.
I AM ABSOLUTELY RUINED GOODBYE
despite how emotionally wrecking this book is, i couldn't put it down. TJR's writing shines in this book as you are drawn into emma blair's life story and can't wait to find out what happens next, or how the characters are going to deal with the situation. i felt everything emma was going through despite not going through a single thing she had, and felt genuine anxiety when jesse resurfaced at the worst possible time.
while navigating the whole being married and engaged scenario definitely made this a worthwhile read, what really drove home how much i loved this book was how we saw emma grow over the years. whether that was through her relationship with her family's bookstore, or with her sister, or even with herself and how she started listening to what she really wanted, deep down, it was amazing to see her character adapt and change. the ending made perfect sense, but it also had me wrecked.
TJR... bring me more
I thought this was gonna be a five-star read but it was missing something but I can't put a finger on what it is. Beautiful read though and I felt like I learned something about true love by reading this. Loved it.
