I adored Beach Read. I usually don't read romance books that sound kind of corny, and this had that description whenever I heard about it on TikTok and then picked it up at B&N. I cast my judgements aside, however, for the sake of branching out and trying new things. I am so glad that I did. This wasn't the usual dark, emotional, profound romance that I'm usually drawn to, yet I couldn't put it down all the same. Augustus and January were a captivating duo that I found myself relating to more than anything else. Often times that is what makes a good book. Emily Henry delivered more than I expected her to. I will most definitely be reading more from her.
