This book was such a beautiful commentary on love, family, grief, loss, and growing into your career. I loved this book. Emily Henry’s insights on personal growth are simply inspiring and had me hooked. I also loved the journey of the writing process and how Janie and Gus’s writing coincided with the plot of the book. The ending was satisfying. 0.5 off for extremely misplaced sex scenes (who has a breakdown and then gets railed?!) and some… interesting… verb choices for touching someone else nicely (really? scraping???) but overall a great novel. Henry should be proud of herself. This is one I would return to again after sitting on it for a little.

Beach Read (much like the title says)

Honestly, I wasn't feeling this one as much.  The characters were okay but at times really annoying.  The relationship felt rushed and a bit too forced.  After they admit their feelings it’s revealed they always felt that way since they were in college… it just kinda comes out of nowhere.  Then there was the ending.  I love romance books as much as the next person but that was way too cliché and just really annoying.  I will say I did like some of the banter was pretty good and I did like the cozy summer vibes it had.

Great book, good characters and development. Ending was slightly sudden and could have used a bit more detail. Overall, I liked it but not as much as Henry’s other two books.
