i love rosalind and orion (and SILAS AND PHOEBE AND my babies roma and juliette)
i agree with some of the other reviews, the ending is a bit discombulated in my mind but there are so many good quotes!!!

i do like celia and oliver too but i feel like i was so focused on silas x phoebe because their dynamic was so exciting and new to me

happy place was good! didn't become my favourite emily henry book, but i enjoyed it :) i loved the first three quarters of the book - the friendship theme and discussions about change and growth is very relevant for what i am experiencing in my personal life. the ending felt a little disjointed - but it was sweet and special as well. tons of quotes for my wall! wyn and harriet have a lot of physical chemistry lol
