I read this book with the voice of Aubrey Plaza in my head for the FMC and it was so perfect I could not stop laughing even when it was not funny

I read “Just for the summer” before reading this book, and it made me even more FURIOUS at THAT character, I swear I was almost SCREAMING at my kindle

Mon premier roman d'amour depuis très longtemps, il m'a fait retombé amoureux du genre. J'ai aimé parce que ce n'est pas seulement une romance sympa, c'est aussi une histoire de revanche personnelle sur un trauma qu'on a tous plus ou moins partagé d'une façon ou d'une autre, ça parle du besoin de se réinventer, de s'accepter. ça parle de réapprendre à connaître les gens que l'on pensait connaître.

J'ai particulièrement aimé le fil rouge du l'histoire, le faite que l'héroïne veuille devenir la personne / le prof qu'elle aurait voulu avoir quand elle était harcelée au lycée.

Plus, les scènes d'amour sont ... vraiment pas mal

Is it just me or is there a huge Missed Opportunity about Grandmother's will :

The grandmother asking FMC to came back living at the farm in hope of rekindling the flame with the mmc, when you think about it it should be obvious but it never explicitly said

Loved it, very satisfying read, but I can't shake that there is some missed opportinuty that keep me from grading it 5 Stars.

I really liked the way the mmc was affacted by their shared trauma but the revelation of his difficulties to the fmc could have been a drama-feeled cathartic and beautul scene and it was not.
same thing goes for the writing room, the revelation of their shared trauma could have been an intersting scene and I was kind of waiting for it during the first half of the book and it never came.

But except this, I really liked this book and I feel like Emily Henry's futures adaptations are in good hands.
