i breezed through this and couldn't stop thinking about it while i was away from it
the writing is haunting, absolutely beautiful absolutely stunning.
i breezed through this and couldn't stop thinking about it while i was away from it
the writing is haunting, absolutely beautiful but also totally gross and dark at the same time.
it's a story about family but also not, a story that has so many twists and turns you don't see coming and then an ending that makes sense but also breaks your heart
not going to forget about this one for a while...more

Slander against this trope will no longer be tolerated.
in the acknowledgements, emily henry says she didn't mean for this book to be "homage to When Henry Met Sally," but I NEVER watched When Henry Met Sally, so I can't compare it and, frankly, i don't believe that it can top this masterpiece, so there.

Book #2 for the Reading Rush for the prompt: the first book you touch
first of all, julia phillips, how dare you?
look this book is slowburn x a milBook #2 for the Reading Rush for the prompt: the first book you touch
first of all, julia phillips, how dare you?
look this book is slowburn x a million and i understand it's hard to get into at first because you're constantly being introduced to so many characters and keeping them straight is very hard and you have no idea why they matter but they DO I PROMISE THEY DO
you would think this is a story of two young girls who got abducted but that's just the tip of the iceberg. this book follows a plethora of incredibly developed characters who are all connected to this tragedy
you don't know it at first, but the more you read, the stronger of a connection you build with this story and the characters and this chilling, isolating setting and then when that last chapter hits, it HITS YOU HARD AND YOU ARE FOUND CURLED INTO A FETAL POSITION CRYING AND YOU KNOW WHAT JULIA PHILLIPS DID AND IT HURTS
the only valid reaction to finishing this book: [image]
i know this book isn't for everyone and i accept your opinion but just know that it's a wrong opinion xoxo
if you're a fan of slow building, character driven stories that are a mix of thriller and realistic fiction like Miracle Creek or Station Eleven, i think you would love love love this book

This book is my serotonin, it’s my ride or die, it’s the smell of cookies baking in the oven, it’s my happy place that I keep coming back to when lifeThis book is my serotonin, it’s my ride or die, it’s the smell of cookies baking in the oven, it’s my happy place that I keep coming back to when life sucks
It’s perfect
For all of you who have been debating over whether friends-to-lovers vs. enemies-to-lovers is superior, let me raise you,
lovers-to-enemies-to-lovers
I promise, it doesn’t get better than this
✨ everything I say in this review is 100% factual and based on science as I have reread the book and tried and tested all the theories ✨
You Deserve Each Other is the story of Naomi Westfield and Nicholas Rose, who are engaged to get married and the absolute perfect couple.
The problem is, they Cannot. Stand. Each. Other.
“He’s my only ally. He’s my worst enemy.
Naomi and Nicholas’s relationship has been dwindling down for quite some time. Naomi feels like she is acting all the time. Pretending that their relationship is Prefect!! That everything Couldn’t be Better!!
But as their wedding date approaches, she’s not so sure she can envision herself getting married to Nicholas anymore
In attempts to save herself from having to pick up the massive, growing wedding bill, Naomi concocts a plan to make Nicholas’s life an absolute nightmare until he finally gives in and breaks up with her
Little does she know, her acting skills aren’t that great and Nicholas has other plans in mind
“But I've got news for Nicholas Benjamin Rose: if he thinks I'm not the biggest waste of time that's ever happened to him, he's got another think coming.”
The Relationship
My new favourite favourite favourite thing to read about is couples who have to fight for each other. (bring those recommendations onnnnn!!) We all love seeing the beginning of a relationship where everything is happy and cutesy and fun, but after the couple gets together, the book ends and we get a stamp that says they live happily ever after
But I don’t want that
I want to see the real stuff, the couples who fight and argue and annoy each other and then find a way to make it right because to me, that’s just SO REAL and GENIUNE and SPECIAL
Seeing two people get together is fun but seeing two people fight to stay together is Magical
“Your body’s here, but your head’s somewhere else. You’ve gone and left me all alone.”
Don’t get me wrong, this book is lighthearted for the most part.
It’s filled with jokes and banter and characters who do outrageous things. But my favourite thing to find upon reread was how the characters went from working so hard to break their relationship to genuinely trying to make it work
And seeing those vulnerable moments where they allowed the barriers to come down and stopped all the stupid pranking and bickering to just TELL the other person how they feel and what they want
SO BEAUTIFUL YOU GUYS, SO BEAUTIFUL
“He shouldn’t be this stunned by a nice gesture. It should be a given, but it’s not, and that’s my fault. I’ve been withholding nice gestures to punish him for not giving me enough nice gestures, and just look at how well that attitude’s panned out for us.”
aaaaaaaaaaa emotions!!!!!!
And then there’s the really adorable, really sweet moment that have me ...more
