"Sometimes life is very hard. Sometimes it demands so much of you that you start losing pieces of yourself as you stretch out to give what the world wants to take.”

This is partially my fault, I'll admit to that!

The last book that I read by Emily Henry - People we meet on Vacation- was a "so-so book". I did like it at first but then I lost interest. And friends-to-lovers is not my trope! And I thought that I was the first and last book that I would read by this author. But then Beach Read was published and seemed like something that I would like, so I gave it a chance. 

To me, this is another "so-so book". I admit that there are some aspects where Henry's has improved. 
To me, Gus love for January didn't seemed so obsessive, bu there were some cringe parts. 
However, just like in the last book, I lost interest. 

I think that this will be the last book that I read from Henry!

This is definitely my favorite book I’ve read by Emily Henry to date. January is one of the most relatable characters I’ve ever met. The books is perfectly paced and has just the right amount of the things that makes you root for the characters. As the title suggests this is a perfect beach read.

i couldn’t put this down when i started it had my attention the whole time it was fast paced and honestly a lot more sad than i was expecting due to the characters backstories etc. the whole concept of this book was so cute and i genuinely loved it was such a  fun and emotional read and wish i could go back in time to read it again.

Emily Henry writes her books for me. the way her characters speak to me is insane. 

I loved this book so much, it's definitely a new favourite.

I want to keep January and Gus inside my pocket and protect them with my life.

I also want a Gus all to myself. he's so... perfect. I need a man who is as obsessed with me as he is with January.

this book made me cry, laugh, swoon... I literally don't know what else to say. I don't even know what to do with myself after reading this, someone send help.

this may be only my second Emily Henry book that I read, but she's already one of my all time favourite authors.
