i could feel both their heartbreak on my tongue and no matter what harriet did, she felt him slipping away and that was the most painful thing to ever read about. i was meant to feel all sad and whatever but i didn’t feel whatever loving and amazing relationship they used to have BECAUSE HER INTERNAL MONOLOGUE WAS SOLELY WANTING TO FUCK HIM. My best friends taught me a new kind of quiet, the peaceful stillness of knowing one another so well you don’t need to fill the space. Social media, cause tell me why I thought of wyn the second I saw someone selling their tables on tinder?

i just love the way EH handles mental health topics and always manages to give so much emotional depth to her characters.HOW EXACTLY WILL YOU PAY BACK +200K OF STUDENT LOANS (with interest btw) EARNING 20K A YEAR 🧍🏻‍���️pls tell me so I can quit uni too. Not only will they make you happy, her latest may just make you fall in love with falling in love again. like you think you can promise the universe something and prevent the inevitable but of course you can’t. The pacing of this book, the alternating timelines, the character development, the relationships were all beautifully and expertly written. In my review, I noted that it lacked some of the polish of Book Lovers, but that was fun to be able to go back and see where she started, so that you can appreciate her progression and growth as a novelist.

this book is for the girls who worry and worry, worry if they’re good enough, worry if they’ve achieved enough, worry if they’re enough.The found family aspect represented belonging in a way that I think we all want to experience, with people who just know and accept you at your core. Sin duda Wyn es el que ha robado mi corazón, el tipo es lindo dese el primer momento con su encanto juvenil y su coqueteo constante pero a medida que la historia avanza también descubrimos sus miedos e inseguridades.

also all the shit with her being dramatic and assuming shit and whatnot made me want to smash my head into a very solid wall. harriet and wyn are so different from each other—yet so similar, this is why they instantly connected with one another. I managed to make it through Emily Henry’s first three releases without caving, but something about Happy Place caused me to rethink my decision, and I’m so grateful that I stopped being a stubborn turd and embraced this emotional journey. Their love had an elegiac tone in how Harriet was describing the "lose" of the love of her life in the present chapters and an eternal essence in how their love seemed unbreakable in the past chapters.My dream was to become a neurosurgeon, so I was speechless and almost screaming like Regina George in Mean Girls). I tried not to think of her as a doormat even tho she clearly was one bc she was about to become a freaking NEUROSURGEON ! i was falling asleep because i felt like i’ve already read this 100000000 times in harry’s internal monologue.

That it had to go somewhere, and funneling it into anger is how I’ve managed to make it through these last two days. it’s this feeling like the universe is compacting around me while something in my rib cage is expanding. there’s this unique connection i get from emily henry’s writing style that at this point should be studied. I’ve memorized the rhythm of his breathing when he sleeps and the smell of his skin when he’s been out in the sun.

not so much a huge rom com like her other books but it’s much more mature and melancholy and UGH there are some passages i teared up at. I get the hype over Emily Henry's books, I swear I do, but they never captivate me or make me giggle, kick my feet in the air or feel happy.
