maniii shared a tip "I CANT EVEN EXPRESS HOW MUCH I LOVE THIS BOOK. LIKE THE TYPE OF LOVE WHERE YOU START CRYING BECAUSE IT’S OVER AND YOU’LL MISS THE CHARACTERS TOO MUCH. ALSO I AM VERY MUCH IN LOVE WITH SAM"

saughder shared a tip "Bought this book last year for my birthday and was really hoping that I would enjoy it only to feel extremely disappointed right afterwards. Can't say I enjoyed it much at all! I didn't like the writing and the dialougue between characters was mediocre to say the least. I question if Mrs. Choi has ever spoken to a freshman in college or if she based her characters off trashy teenage romance shows. Definitely not my favorite read but it does have me wondering if she's grown as an author."

atsui shared a tip "this book made me so genuinely happy. the characters were relatable and funny. i smiled everytime penny and sam had almost any form of interaction. 9/10 <3"

vall_bertelsen shared a tip "The girl find the boy have his first panic attack and the become each other (emergency contact) (name book) and they fall in love with each other as they tell each other there secrets they told no one else."

mariah_brown_6342 shared a tip "It's an interesting book that I would recommend reading! It shows that new and current college kids have lives to get away from in their past and move on. But now with each other they create new memories and finding a way to leave the old pasts away."

lilyan_gibson shared a tip "This book was not all that. Where it stopped made it seem that it was unfinished. I had high hopes for the book that it definitely didn't reach. The authors writing style was lovely, I loved how she showed the text messages like she did. I will not be re-reading this book."

mgn_trrnc_ shared a tip "If you like a sloooooooooowwww burn this is the book for you, it focus a lot on the characters lives before they slowly start mixing but it’s super cute when they do. The vibe is “finding the person who makes you comfortable”"

amy_lopez_6384 shared a tip "Adorble romance and I love how they didn’t really understand how the felt about eachother and didn’t run staraight into a realationship."

allee_nelson shared a tip "Omgggg I just finished this book and let me say wow, not predictable at all through and through had me hooked I loved it. Such a cute story 6/5 ⭐️ highly recommend if you like romance with twists"

zaphir_adams shared a tip "it was #relatable and I got so emotional throughout so many beautiful parts of this. I had that good book hangover/depression. it's that good. wow"

amylee_lopez shared a tip "Beautifully written concept and very updated view on friendship an love, especially with the pandemic. Fell in love with the characters' thoughts and ability to be vulnerable with others and themselves."

gotthatdumpy shared a tip "halfway through this right now and i love it! unrelated story: i just started my new job and i don’t let anyone call me sammy, but my new shift leader is a greek lady that instinctively started to call me sammy. i thought that beginning scene with al hit a little too close to home 😂"

abigail_garcia_8213 shared a tip "First time reading a book with an Asian main character, I’ve really been trying to branch out this year and found a new favorite author. Fantastic writing style, easy flow it feels like reading someone’s life which is perfect. Quick read, really enjoyed it would recommend. #romcom #relatable #college"

alexis_morrison_71 shared a tip "Just finished this book 2 seconds ago and im still super happy about the ending. Most teen romance books are REALLY cheesy but this was totally realistic and just plain cute. Definitely recommend 🤗"

megan_scoti shared a tip "Tells the story of modern romance in such a realistic way, doesn’t give us some out of touch miracle where everything is amazing at the end, and not to mention- the Asian representation?? I finished this last night and must say, I love love love this book."

trinity_baunsgard shared a tip "I absolutely loved this book! It was giddy and very realistic to how young adults (like myself) are today. The two characters portrayed in this story end up crossing paths because of them knowing the same person, but become friends over text messages. I loved the modern day love story that this story gave! Definitely a very good read if you want a good laugh every once and a while."

peyt0n shared a tip "I did enjoy this book, though I see and understand other’s problems with it. I read it all in one setting, because I do not sleep. I feel like if I was a pickier reader I would definitely not read this book. Overall, the characters are flawed and make questionable decisions, but I don’t think that’s so much the issue as one liners like “depression suited Sam,” etc. Again, I quite liked the book, but there are definitely lines that made me put it down and breathe for a second- or laugh."

leah_mcgrew shared a tip "This book was so raw and relatable, the way you could watch Penny and Sam grow closer was so heart warming, as well as captivating. I totally recommend."

vinzlx shared a tip "Oh my god ! Such a good book . I read it in within 3 days and that was due to interruptions . I love their relationship .Sam is so pure he deserves the world . Penny and sam are lowkey opposites but at the same time exacly the same , it’s weird . I hope the author writes a sequel , i need to know what happens next ! 100% recommend!"

adlen_spinks shared a tip "I love the progression of the main relationship and the ending was one of the most sweet and satisfying endings I've read in a romance novel!"

mackichu shared a tip "This is my comfort book!!! Such a fun story. This book made me feel so seen as an Asian American girl who grew up in Texas! Pick this book up if you get the chance!"

mystical_wolves12 shared a tip "#romance #drama this book really hit how people are now and I loved the way the author worded the book. This book was so good to read and kept me on edge about the relationships going on in the book"

vanessa_alvarez_5139 shared a tip "This book reintroduced me to reading again. After a difficult time in school where my reading abilities were undermined and scoffed at I decided to pick up this fabulous pink book! If you love sweet romances and age-gaps (super appropriate ones that is) then you'll have such a pleasant time reading this. I highly recommend Mary H. K. Choi's other books (Yolk and Permanent Record) as well."

audiobookie shared a tip "The banter & chemistry between the two MC’s was great, and I laughed out loud several times. I thought the descriptions of anxiety were really well done. The end was disappointing but only because I wanted to get to spend more time with the characters! Penny is my new book girlfriend 😍 I loved the way her mind worked. This one is going on my To Reread list!"

Enderess.Madi shared a tip "If you’re life is a mess you will instantly connect with these characters. There is something so relatable about trying to move on in life when everything is holding you back. This story is one everyone should read and if you enjoy the little romances that suddenly have turn into them falling hard… This is your book. Now that I’m older its harder to appreciate these characters, but for those of you struggling feel free to commiserate alongside these two."

pipery shared a tip "I did not like this book. It was boring and I didn’t like the writing style. There was too much extra, useless information, and barely felt like a romance considering it was mostly just background info. I felt tired reading it. #emergencycontact"

jaedyn_t shared a tip "good book. easy read; finished in a day. read like a wattpad story but with only fluff and angst, no ****. romance was secondary to the main character’s development, which i liked. i’d recommend this book."
