I don’t think I’ve ever read a Lynn Painter book I didn’t love. And, there is a pretty good playlist at the end, which sold me on this book. Also, there are Taylor Swift references throughout the entire book. There were also a lot of original moments between Emilie and her love interest it wasn’t tropey for those who like to avoid tropes and want something original but fun. Lynn Painter knows how to write the perfect humor in a rom-com. I found this book to be funny, and I remember laughing a few times. Also, in the beginning of each chapter, Emilie makes a confession, which is a creative way for readers to know more about her without stating it directly into the book, if it doesn’t relate to what is happening in the storyline. However, her checklist might not work in terms of love, and it was so fun to see her figure this out. She’s a girl who has high expectations of love, and she knows she deserves it, so she makes a checklist for all the qualities she looks for. This book is probably one of my top books of 2022. Emilie can’t strategically plan her way out of this one. However, she runs into Nick everyday, literally, in the most unfortunate ways.
