Reviews with content warning for Pregnancy - People We Meet on Vacation

I really liked this one!
I was so happy I finally got to read it, and after the prologue, I did not touch it for like a month. Because, of course, I was reading something else.
But then I got back to it and it took some time to immerse myself again. But after that, I kept asking myself why I didn't pick it up sooner. It was so heartwarming!
And gosh, Alex <3
Do I have to say more?
I really liked the story and the way the flashbacks were told, even though I had some understanding problems with it in the beginning.
But this is the start of me reading more Emily Henry books in the future cuz I'm hooked. She did it.

Unfortunately, I am not a fan of the major plot conflict being miscommunication. While, I enjoyed the male love interest Alex Nilsen, I found our main character, Poppy Wright to be a little annoying at times with her lack of thoughts and consideration towards the relationship. The romance itself was cute and bubbly, especially the last few pages. The first 200 pages felt very repetitious with the vacations and it confused me sometimes with the back-to-back timelines between the past and present. The writing itself was pretty easy to read and I was engaged in where the couple were headed. However, I definitely would not recommend this book to someone that dislikes the miscommunication trope as heavily as I do.

Probably my least fave EH book, BUT I still loved it regardless. It felt a bit more shallow than her other two tbh. I still loved all of the characters though, and the development of their love for each other felt very natural. Also I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again! Emily Henry nails dialogue better than most popular contemp authors right now, it’s like Gilmore Girls meets Nora Ephron in the best way possible.
