“Maybe things can always get better between people who want to do a good job loving each other. Maybe that’s all it takes.”

“Like a good book or an incredible outfit, being on vacation transports you into another version of yourself.”

“You can’t outrun yourself. Not your history, not your fears, not the parts of yourself you’re worried are wrong.”

Poppy and Alex officially live rent-free in my head. I love how deep the author went with the characters back stories. Usually, I prefer enemies to lovers but this friends to lovers story really showed me the beauty in this trope. I loved how well they knew each other and their chemistry was absolutely off the charts. The banter between the main characters was genuinely funny. I actually found myself staying up until after midnight on a school night to finish this which is saying something. I love how Henry was able to make me feel everything the characters felt. The yearning was painful!! But, oh, so lovely. There was a spot or two near the end that slowed down but by then I was too far in and just wanted to know how it ended.I will definitely be looking more from Emily Henry.
