People We Meet on Vacation by Emily Henry
5.0
"The one thing I know is, wherever you are, that’s where I belong. I’ll never belong anywhere like I belong with you. No matter what I’m feeling, I want you next to me. You’re home to me."

*big dramatic sigh*
This book speaks to me.

Re-read #1: This book is an embodiment of "introverts don't make friends, they just get adopted by the extroverts."
--------------------------------------------------------------
First Read:
"This is what life’s about: being somewhere beautiful, with someone you love."
THIS IS HOW YOU DO FRIENDS-TO-LOVERS!!
10000/5 PERFECT STARS ✨
I feel so empty, so fucking lonely. Why did I finish this book? Why didn't it last forever? Why do I not have an Alex Nilson besides me? What am I gonna do with my life now that I'm done with this book? My life has no purpose now and I don't think any romance book, specifically a friend-to-lovers book is gonna swoon me the way this did.
"Maybe things can always get better between people who want to do a good job loving each other. Maybe that’s all it takes."
I loved every part of the book. But the part which gripped me the most was how damn realistic this book was. From cheap summer trips to the real complexity of friends to lovers, this book captured all perfectly!
This book is a perfect getaway, a heartfelt escapism to twelve tantalizing, heart-thrilling summer trips and the people they meet on vacation.
It's a heart-fluttering, slow burn, long 12 years of strong undying friendship full of yearning, complications and patience. This is one of those rare books which catches the true complications and complexity of friends to lovers romance, and this is coming from someone who very much dislikes the trope bcz of how vanilla ass boring shit it feels like. Seems like I was reaching out to the wrong authors for the trope. Emily Henry is the fucking winner!
