Popcorn#1: Did you know? About Emily's published books.
Her first published book, Firsts with You, covers the first arc and front half of the second arc of this story [chapters 1 - 17, 21 - 25]. It is a fiction romance story based on true events and was published under the name of E. Lee.
Emily's second book, Matters of the Heart, covers all the chapters in this story, excluding those from the male lead's point of view, of course. It is a non-fiction autobiography of Emily's recounts of falling in love, the ups and downs in her relationship, becoming a widow (although not official in terms of state laws) and soon-to-be a single mother. She wrote and completed it during her pregnancy then it was published under the name of E. L. Tiffin.
Popcorn#2: Did you know? That this story has a (not original, super cliche, the writer didn't even procure copyrights, blah blah blah) soundtrack.
I Like Me Better by Lauv
Because of You by 98 Degrees
Forever and Always by Parachute
The Most Beautiful Expectation by Bibi Zhou [Instrumental] (Mandarin song)
Lemon by Kenshi Yonezu [Instrumental] (Japanese song)
Most of Daughtry's songs kind of fit too...If I really have to pick one, I guess, Start of Something Good, it is. (Let me pick another one please!) And Life After You. Okay, there you go.
The mandarin and japanese songs were listed as 'Instrumental' since the lyrics are not sung in english, which is the language used for this book. However, if you are curious about it, you can search for the english translations to know the meaning behind the lyrics!
Popcorn#3: Did you know? On Heath's original sexuality.
My super duper raw plan was for Heath to be gay and that by the end of the story, he might end up with Davin.
Popcorn#4: Did you know? An inner dialogue from Emily that couldn't be inserted into the main story nor deleted scenes.
From drinking with the group last night, I learnt "Bang, Marry, Kill". If you apply this game to the Tiffin men, without hesitation you kill the father, bang the younger, unstable Tiffin brother and marry the older, mature Tiffin.
Popcorn#5: Did you know? The original plan was for Emily to marry Heath at the end of the story.
So the rawest of plans was for Emily to marry a random dude. Then it became Heath, hence changing his sexuality from gay to bi. Then the final choice was as per how the story went. What are your thoughts?
