the book is much better paced than the movie. also poppy is a much more tolerable MC (surprising for an emily henry book)

oh! i am DOWN bad for these two! i ship them so hard, and more than any other emily henry couple. i see Why they made a movie. and while it is a fun stand alone movie, it is a Bad adaption of this book!!

while the book shows a bit more how their friendship grows over time and is a lot more realistic in the trips around america that they can afford. i still want to see more of the early years of alex and poppy. also i get that some chapters are thematically linked and so we hop around the timeline but it’s actually to complicated for me and i just wish things were in chronological order
