Is Reminders of Him a book?

Yes, this movie is an adaptation of the New York Times bestselling author Colleen Hoover's book Reminders of Him, which was released January 18, 2022. 

Reminders of Him is the fourth Hoover book to get adapted into a feature film, but it’s the first where she was able to adapt the book into the screenplay. She told Variety, "On this one, we co-wrote the script and shopped it around. We interviewed directors and were involved in every step of the process. I went from being the author who visited sets to diving in head first."

As an author with strong ties to her readers via BookTok, Hoover said they were always front of mind as she was writing this version. "First and foremost, what are they excited to see? What quotes do they hope make it in?” she said of her process. "But I love a good movie. If I don’t think something from the book is going work in the film, I’ll be the first one to say, 'Let’s get rid of it.’"
