Awful narration made this unlistenable

Revisado: 04-12-25

I struggled through to the end but couldn’t get past the narrator’s unnatural pauses and cadence, and provocative-sounding lilt at the end of certain sentences. The story might’ve been fine but I couldn’t tell. Probably worth a read but not a listen.

Narration is AWFUL

Revisado: 09-13-24

Decent plot but the writing is super cringey, the language is old-fashioned (who says “they slipped her a Mickey” unless you’re a 1920s wise guy?!) and the characters are caricatures. The narration? Lifeless. Probably a case where the movie is way better than the book it’s based on.

I really wanted to like this

Revisado: 06-09-23

And I really wanted to like the MCs. They played victim too well for my taste. Seems like a totally different author than the Elissa Sussman who wrote Funny You Should Ask (which I loved!). The writing here was sappy and the narration was even sappier—no subtlety or range in delivery. The worst of the narrator’s voices was Ryan’s, which sounded a little cartoonish.

This might be my favorite of her books yet

Revisado: 04-30-23

As always, the writing is flawless and the banter is on point. But I don’t think I’ve ever sobbed over past Emily Henry characters or their arcs. This. Book. Gutted me. Yes, a lot of the MCs’ misunderstandings could’ve totally been avoided—but then we wouldn’t have a story would we?

Speechless.

Revisado: 03-06-23

I am breathless having just finished this. Fantastic story, wonderfully brought to life by Kristen Sieh. If this doesn’t get picked up by Netflix, they’re missing out.

This needs to be made into a movie

Revisado: 02-11-23

The best slow burn romance I’ve read in awhile. And with such well-developed characters. Already fantasizing about who would be cast as Becca and Charlie ❤️

Worth the credit!

Revisado: 02-08-23

Was initially iffy about this but so glad I spent the credit. For a closed door romance, one of the MC’s love interests was written like he gave off heat. *Swoon* And the narration was absolute perfection.

Wasted a credit. And quit 4 hours in.

Revisado: 07-24-22

Thus began my cringing at the liberal use of the words “thus” (see what I did there?) and “babe.” No one actually talks like this irl. It’s like the characters were play-acting at being a fashion assistant and a roughneck, thanks to the narrow and misguided vocabularies the author gave them. Apparently, cultured people say “tthus” and “therefore” and blue-collars call someone they’ve just met “babe” 24\7.

Might be Emily Henry’s best yet

Revisado: 05-08-22

This book gutted me. Great enemies-to-lovers plot but even better sisters-as-soulmates subplot. And, as always, Emily Henry’s main characters are sharp and funny as hell. Makes me wanna be friends with them if only they were real.

This. Book. 🙌🏼

Revisado: 04-29-22

Great story. Love how the characters and dialogue went from snarky (seriously caught myself literally laughing out loud) to sobering and back again throughout the book. Checks all my rom com boxes: depth, wit and Julia Whelan. That woman is pure magic.
