Emily Henry: People We Meet on Vacation

Emily Henry takes readers around the world and shows that just one more trip may just change everything:

This may be shocking but this is the first Henry book that I have read and it is easy to see why she is such a popular author. This book was a fun and easy breezy read that not only give your heart warm feelings but make you want to travel as well.

For me this book is very much a palate cleanser from the darker book I read as well as changing up the genres. I have found that by changing genres every few books makes reading as whole more enjoyable for me.

As what is typical with the romance genre you know how this book is going to end but it is really not the ending that matters but the journey the characters take to get there. Oh and what a journey Poppy and Alex go on, one that spans years and countries.

Right from the beginning you want to know what happened two years ago to cause a rift between Poppy and Alex and you’re going to have to be patient to get there. As the reader you don’t really understand why they didn’t see what was right in front of them with each other.

Poppy and Alex are a fun friendship and I love how different they are from each other but it just works. Their inside jokes are cute and there are some funny moments along their journey. I just really enjoyed them and the friendship that they have with each other.

I think my main complaint about this book is that this books starts to feel long as you get to the end. I feel like their relationship with each other has been established and Henry did not have to go back so many years or have as many vacation trip to get to what happened.

This was a good read, that made me want to travel. I would read another book by Henry.

Enjoy!!!
