Beach Read by Emily Henry

emotional funny lighthearted medium-paced

3.5

A generally light read, charming but predictable romance with sprinkled in heavier themes of family secrets/traumas. I like Emily Henry's humor and plot development  but felt like these characters were slightly less likable for me than other books and the tempo of the book felt a bit clunky.  The leads were multifaceted, but I wished both January's development surrounding her dad and gus's development surrounding his family trauma were more rounded out. But still, a fun read with characters you root for!
