Look - Can Emily Henry just write a bad book already?
Beach Read continues the streak of me giving 5 stars to anything written by Henry. She is a master of creating well-rounded and relatable characters. The plots are always realistic that never feel like their too contrived. In Beach Read, Henry makes a wonderful set of writer main characters who really capture what it feels like to be a writer. She creates family dynamics that are intriguing but never become overwhelming. All in all, I get the hype and will be joining the group of people who constantly talk about how great all of Henry's books are.
