Happy Place by Emily Henry
5.0
this book was a grower, but when it grew, it *grew* so exponentially that i’m still recovering. even though this still qualifies as a rom com, it is definitely the least rom com of emily henry’s books so far. i’m still reeling from the amount of times this book HURT ME (and then patched me up).
harriet and wyn had such real struggles that it made me uncomfortable with how much i could relate to them. their worries, issues, thoughts, and everything else just made my heart ache from the realization that this book is made for those that are stuck, or lost, or finding their way in the world. it’s so well done. and i love them as always, because emily henry is unable to write a couple that i dislike.
as someone who’s about to deal with some big changes in life, monumental, i suppose, happy place was what i needed to console me. i love the characters and all their flaws. it’s what made me believe that things could be okay.
it’s only a 4.75 because of how i needed to acclimate to the book in the beginning. then i was flying through it and by the end, i was post many mental breakdowns.
