Emily Henry's writing is
succulent and addictive, making this a novel that is sweetly charming from start to finish, filled with yearning and tension. Above all though Henry allows space for authenticity, the characters have very real struggles and challenges to undergo - Poppy is at a roadblock in her career. It is this that makes the novel so engaging, as it feels
immensely real and immediate. This is the perfect summer read and we can't recommend it enough * Off The Record *
This author writes such
fabulous romcoms * Prima Magazine *
