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

Emily Henry and Julia Whelan are the ultimate book dream team. How Whelan manages to capture the world that Henry creates and bring it to life so vividly is astounding. I feel a part of the story and, when I’m not listening, I’m thinking about everything I’ve heard and what I’ll hear next.

You and Me (People We Meet) On Vacation is a beautiful tale of love, found family, friendship and, dare I say it, millennial ennui. It teaches its readers that there is more to life than the goals we are taught to aspire to in our life, that, though we’ve been taught that these things will bring happiness, it is 1. not a failure to not achieve them and 2. they are not the only thing that can make your life worthy and your presence valuable.

Poppy and Alex have a piece of my heart, and they always will.

Super slow burn but the ending really makes up for it. I love both Alex and Poppy so much, and all of the adventures they go on. Really don’t like Sarah, Alex’s long-term ex girlfriend, she’s just…blah, and she obviously hates Poppy, so she’s a big red flag. Chapter length varies which I love and hate. Emily Henry is a fantastic writer, can’t wait to read more of her books!

This is my favorite book by Emily Hebry so far.

very spicy book. The character's journey is a moving one. You want to scream to get it together but when characters finally go through self reflection and theapy I found myself feeling it was prefect. Poppy needed to confront herself and find herself. Alex needed to confront his fears. I lovethe open future for them. They are together but where they will live is undecided.
