Synopsis: Two best friends go on 10 summer trips - until the big uh oh happened. Now they barely talk and pretend what happened didn't. When Poppy realizes how sad her life is without Alex, her literal opposite in every way, she proposes one last trip to fix everything that's broken. But the unspoken words between them must come out, and it may ruin their relationship forever.

The good: I really loved this book. I'm a sucker for travel books and this was a perfect example of travel mixed with romance. The banter between the characters was otherworldly as usual with Emily Henry, and I loved their relationship. Their personalities were fun to explore and see together. I wanted them to get together so bad and was really rooting for them the whole time.

The meh: I really have no complaints about this book! It hit every mark for me.

The verdict: You will like this if you like romance, travel, vacations, banter, opposites attract, and second chances.
