A summer romance
The Story of Us by Emma Mugglestone
4.0
This book was ✨magical.✨
I need to go back and read the rest of Emma’s books ASAP! The story of us is a small town lighthearted romance. I was dying to know what was going to happen to these characters. Throw in the side-characters - some you hate, some you love. I was feeling all the things. I mean who doesnt love a band of meddling old women?
Highly recommend!

Have you ever been reading a book and you realize that your heart is swelling? And you’re smiling the whole time? That was me throughout Summertime Punchline.
So much of this story resonates with me on a personal level and for that I am so thankful. In her acknowledgements, Betty wrote that she wanted to target a very specific audience with the character that is the FMC - it worked.
This book is full of love, hope, humor, second chances, and real-world problems. On top of that the writing is great and Betty doesn’t adopt the “usual formula” of pacing and tropes we see so often.
I am so thankful to have read this book and am dying for a physical copy come
pub day!
