April was a big month for me in terms of reading because this was the month I discovered the magic of Emily Henry’s books. I read three of her books this month, including her newest release, Funny Story. Besides these highly emotional contemporary romances, I enjoyed a variety of historical fiction and even dabbled into psychology non-fiction in the form of Toxic Positivity by Whitney Goodman. So, here’s what I thought of everything I read in April!
Funny Story by Emily Henry is a top-notch opposites-attract romance full of the witty banter and emotional nuance the author is known for. Read on for my thoughts on the novel, along with my favorite quotes from the book!
Right from the prologue, this book drew me in and held my attention close. “When books are your life…,” it starts out, “you get pretty good at guessing where a story is going.” Still, though, Book Lovers by Emily Henry managed to surprise me, with plenty of emotional and evocative twists and turns throughout its pages. Full of witty banter and poignant moments, Book Lovers is a must-read for any…well…book lover.
Happy Place is a must-read for anyone in their late-twenties and early-thirties, experiencing the growing pains of adulthood that no one really warns you about. Following a group of college friends on their last trip to a beloved cottage — their happy place — this book made me laugh, cry, and everything in between.
