Exact Opposite of Funny Story. In

funny story, the book starts out with great characterization and then completely fizzes out by the end.

In Beach Read, both characters are pretty annoying, especially her. Their emotional reactions regarding their relationship to each other don't make any sense at all. However, I think the ending is one of the stronger Emily Henry endings, so it's worth sticking it out.
