Maybe this just Isn't For Me, but I did not find this enjoyable at all. An easy, breezy read, this felt like it was trying really hard to be Emily Henry's Happy Place mixed with a lecture towards millennials to not work so hard. It felt overly cheesy, I didn't get the sense of depth of friendship that similar books have within the friend group (like Happy Place), and I had a hard time believing these characters were actually 35. I know that we tend to act similar to the age we meet friends at, but I think this would have been much more believable if the characters were 23. I could easily see this being someone's beachy, summer read, but it's not mine. 

Thanks for NetGalley for the ARC
