I love Emily Henry's writing style and this book only strengthened that love. Her ability to write banter between love interests is fantastic and I absolutely adored the two main characters. This is both an ideal book to read on vacation, or to read in the middle of winter (like me) and live vicariously through the characters on their many trips. I did feel like there was a lot of buildup to a certain point in this story, that ended up being completely underwhelming in my opinion. I think this book would actually have been stronger if it hadn't constantly referenced 'The Croatia Trip' and just let us see Poppy and Alex build their friendship again.
