(4.5) If anyone can do a second chance romance/miscommunication trope well, it’s the Queen Emily Henry!
Definitely not my favorite EmHen book (Beach Read is to soul book) but she can do no wrong !!! This book was sweet with so much love, found family, forced proximity, and second chances! Such a sweet read.

Emily Henry, how come I never heard of you? This is only my second book but I am obsessed with the way she writes. Funny, relatable, honest, romantic, raw… after reading PWMOV, I couldn’t wait to get into more of her books. And let me tell you, I loved this one. At first I was a bit sceptic about Harriet and Wyn, and I didn’t feel like reading a book about two exes. But, I’m so glad it shifted to more than that. I loved the way their group of friends was build and I could relate to (almost) everyone. I really felt like I was a part of the group. Wyn stole my heart. The way he talked about Harriet was… magical. I marked so many of his words to her. Actually I have nothing else to say other than I enjoyed it and even cried a bit. Can’t wait to read more of Emily. Thank you for making reading so fun!!!!
I keep giving Emily Henry a try and hoping her books will get better, but they don’t. The beginning of this book was good, the middle fell flat the ending made up for a bit but not enough.
I started reading this thinking it was gonna be a fun fluffy book cuz the title is literally Happy place, and i got a heart wrenching, angsty, soul crushing story about found family and love.. And I loved it so much

my second time read, and here's the my full review:
With tears in my eyes, I will say that this is probably one of the best second-chance romances I have ever read. (I don't think some books can top this for me, yet)
I think Emily Henry can write the depth and vulnerability of her characters stunningly.
At first, I felt like I couldn't relate to Harriet, but the more I read, the more I understood that many layers of her were built slowly within the story. After that, I feel like I AM JUST LIKE HARRIET AND I UNDERSTAND HER, TOO MUCH.
I love the dual timeline; some might say it's a bit slow, and it is, but I enjoyed the way the plot was written. Another thing that I love, the side characters here are one of the key points to their story, not just some accessories that were added to the plot.
lovers, friends, families, everything is a huge part of the story.
So, Emily Henry, I will send my therapy bills soon.
Also, if you talk shit about Harriet and Wyn, I'm not gonna be mad, but I'm gonna cry.
"In every universe, it's you for me. Even if it's not me for you."
