Funny Story

Oh, she's done it AGAIN. Leave it to Emily Henry to deliver an achingly tender romance while also serving you a heart-wrenching look at trauma and how it affects us even years after the fact. I love this book just as much as I've loved the other ones I've read by her. Daphne and Miles had me giggling like a fool with their banter and the found family vibes absolutely DELIVERED!

It was Daphne's relationship with her mom and with herself that really got me though. The themes of how being an adult means learning to be happy on your own and not having your happiness and peace be dependent on other people is such an important message.

The scenes where Daphne sort of heals her inner child with her work at the library honestly almost made me cry.

Another banger as expected Mrs. Henry! Will be eagerly waiting for the next one!
