I think it's a mistake to go into this book only for the romance part. Sure, there is a whole chunk of it, but I feel like the main aspect of the story is the exploration of how some traumatic experience in our lives can affect the way we handle our feelings and the way it affects our relationships to people and places.
It made this book a more interesting take on the friends to lover plot than expected, because this part is obvious right from the beginning.
It's my first read from Emily Henry and I am now curious about her other books. She's got a great writing style and a way of describing feelings I enjoyed very much.

This book had me smiling and laughing out loud! I loved the banter between Alex and Poppy, and the flashbacks to their previous vacations. I could see a lot of myself in both characters which was nice!
I fell in love within the first 5 pages and have marked sooo many lines.
I loved that Henry has so many references of how awful Ohio is through Poppy’s character; as a fellow Michigander and midwesterner, we all talk crap about Ohio 😂
I didn’t know until recently that Henry and I share an Alma Mater, Hope College! She was a senior when I was a freshman which is so cool to think about and love the book that much more 🥹😍
I loved every second of this book, honestly I can’t think of anything I didn’t like or felt was missing. I’m curious though to see what’s different in the UK version, You and Me on Vacation, and which version I would like best. 10/10 perfect summer read

This book is super cute! It perfectly fulfilled my craving for a romance novel. I love the friends to lovers trope and this book does it really well. The writing and the witty banter were also excellent.
My one disappointment was that the buildup to what happened in Croatia was not justified at all. Once I found out what happened, I was like, “That’s it?” It felt a bit anticlimactic, not to mention it was an unrealistic reason to stop speaking to someone for two whole years.
