Review: A sweet warm love story! - Engaged to the all too perfect Peter, Daphne is devastated when he reveals to her the night after his bachelor party, that he is infact in love with his childhood best friend Petra. Plucked out of Peter's life, she finds herself sharing an apartment with Petra's ex Miles. What ensues after is a warm, feel good tale about love, friendship and family. I picked up the book, expecting it to be witty, humorous, laugh out loud, deceived by the title perhaps. The beginning promised of all this and so much more. But as I read on, it mellowed to a reflective, introspective tale instead. The characters were warm, sweet and relatable throughout. Their struggles, grief and angst portrayed beautifully. All in all, if you are looking for a warm, fuzzy snuggle under blanket with a hot chocolate, then go for it.Personally, for me, it was a perfect palate cleanser between two intense novels. We all need those once in a while.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect for romcom lovers
*by A***A on 18 July 2024*

* The story follows Daphne, a librarian, who was soon going to get married with the love of her life Peter. But things were going good until the moment he realised that he was in love with his childhood best friend Petra. Which is why Peter and Petra dumped their partners. Which is how Daphne begins her new story: Stranded in beautiful Waning Bay, Michigan, without friends or family but with a dream job as a children's librarian, and proposing to be roommates with the only person who could possibly understand her predicament: Petra's ex, Miles Nowak. What starts as a devastating situation for both, glues them together, they form a tenuous friendship which might lead to something even better. But Daphne and Miles are exactly opposite of each other. But can it work when they are so different? there's no way Daphne would actually start her new chapter by falling in love with her ex-fiance's new fiancée's ex... right? My review: It was my first Emily Henry book, I had my expectations veryyy high and I'm happy to say that i wasn't let down. I lovedddddd Funny story from the beginning to the end. I was so intrigued by the writing style of Emily 9. The characters were multi- dimensional, there was interesting and convincing sub plots like friendships, sibling relationship, conflicted parental relationships etc. And Milessssss he is my new fictional boyfriend Miles is a green flag • I love this man so much. Miles is a selfless, humble, and sexy guy. Loved the romance and the humour. This is one of the best romcom i have ever read. Period. I absolutely loved annotating this book.
