Book Lovers is such a cute modern day love story designed thoughtfully with a "book lover" in mind. The whimsical writing, the sarcastic banter between the FMC and MMC, and the dreamy setting was wonderful!

I really loved People We Meet on Vacation, and I was hoping for a repeat experience. Unfortunately, I did not enjoy this book as much as I hoped I would. I did not like the way Nora treated her sister. I loved Charlie and Henry, which is strange for me because I usually like the men the least in most books I read. That said, it wasn't a bad book, I think it just wasn't the book for me!

Lord, this book came out 100 years ago and I forgot to review it. It's an Emily Henry book, literally what else needs to be said? Of course I loved it and recommend it all over the library.

Not my favorite Emily Henry I've read, but still a very very enjoyable read and that's saying something! Her most unenjoyable book is still a solid 4 stars from me. I like the plot of this book, it was simple and sweet and once again, just like every time, Emily Henry absolutely nails the characters. Theyre quirky and flawed and just right the mix of realism and fictional.

First of all, the allusions to so many books, series, and authors made my librarian heart so gleeful! But what I appreciated the most about this book is that it is an atypical romance. Emily Henry continues to keep us on our toes when it comes to her romances, and I love that!

Emily Henry has done it again!! Book Lovers is my new favorite. You always know Emily Henry will write something you love, but I'm not sure she can top Book Lovers. Nora and Charlie's chemistry is.... WOW. Throw in books and editing splash in some steam, I didn't stand a chance.

I loved it!!

I enjoyed this one. The characters, small town setting, and the bookish elements. Def worth a read but ultimately not my absolute fav EmHen — that will always be Beach Read!🩷

Are you kidding me Emily? I love this book more than Beach Read. I cried multiple times during the reading of this book and I am not ashamed to admit that. Nora is perfect in her imperfections and Charlie is such a sweetheart even though he can be such an ass. I love the way Henry makes us love the characters despite their faults, or maybe even because of them. Libby is such a good sister and her dynamic with Nora is so heart-warming, it made me want to hug my sisters after every interaction of theirs. Obsessed.

“Sometimes, even when you start with the last page and you think you know everything, a book finds a way to surprise you.”

this book was so cute and so relatable with all the book references to any book lover. it’s a perfect romcom. Charlie and Nora’s banter was so on point and they were both hilarious. I loved their relationship build-up and growth. It was so cute how he would purposely make her laugh and would say all the right things. SWOON. Charlie was perfect.

I do feel like the romance took a little bit of a back seat when it came to Nora and her sister, Libby, but I did not mind. I loved their sister bond and that Nora would do anything for her. I am the oldest sibling, so I could relate to that.

the ending was really cute and it made me love it more.

this book has:
-enemies to friends to lovers
-small town romance
-work place
-vacation bucket list
-sister dynamic
-skinny dipping 👀

5⭐️

Book Lovers by Emily Henry is a delightful and insightful novel that is a perfect fit for readers who adore lighthearted, emotional, and humorous stories about sisters, small-town charm, and enemies-to-lovers romances, with a dash of wit and a strong female protagonist who is ready to rewrite her own story.

I really loved the first half of this book. I loved the banter between Charlie and Nora. I was completely falling in love with Charlie. My favorite character in the book actually. Three quarters of the way through I was getting just a tad bored and frustrated with Nora. For some reason she was beginning to annoy me. Unfortunately, considering she is the MFC, I didn’t warm to her. I liked her sister so much better than Nora. I liked how the book ended and I still loved Charlie throughout. If it wasn’t for him and the overall story this would be a three star, simply because Nora kind of dragged things down for me.

Emily Henry never disappoints, and she has never missed so far! Book Lovers is such a delightful twist on the well-tread trope of city girls goes to the country, and I especially liked the not-so-predictable happy ending.

Loved this book, especially how it portrayed the publishing scene and how different the two characters were yet how well they worked together. Emily Henry is easily a favorite romance author.

This is my faaaaaaaaaaaaaavorite Emily Henry book, BY FAR. Nora and Charlie are so fun, and I loved watching them reframe their relationship and history as they keep running into each other in town.

LOVED THIS. I read it in a single day! This is my favorite of Emily Henry's books thus far. The characters are so great and relatable, and it was extremely romantic.

At this point I am convinced that Emily Henry can do no wrong. I can’t believe I waited so long to read Book Lovers, this romance was delightful! I adored Nora and Charlie and all the other characters so much. This is small town romance with the best twist. Five stars!

This romance did not disappoint. The main characters were each well-rounded and interesting, and I really loved the way their story unfolded.

I was a little worried about this one since I loved Beach Read and then didn't care for People We Meet on Vacation. But this one went back to all the things I loved about Beach Read, including a great dynamic between the two leads! I really loved their romance and Nora's character arc throughout the story. It was so fun how this turned the big city girl moves to small town trope on its head! And of course, I loved that parts of it were set in NYC (and felt authentic!).

This book is special. The writing is sharp and insightful - and at times just breathtakingly beautiful.

I want to crawl inside the world Emily Henry built and settle in. The bustling yet homey New York City that Nora loves and the small town of Sunshine Falls that’s full of punny business names and quirky townsfolk.

The pacing, the tension and the bond between Nora and her sister Libby were all perfection. I love that Book Lovers is so much bigger of a story than the romance - it’s deep and incredibly moving.

Please, read this. Pre-order this. Get this book in your hands somehow. Highly recommended.
