People We Meet on Vacation by Emily Henry

One-Sentence Summary:

After two years of near-silence, Poppy asks her friend Alex to accompany her on a final trip reminiscent of those they took every summer before their falling out.

My Review:

Am I a fan of friends to lovers? No. Here’s why: I almost always think that the lovers would be better off if they stayed friends. I definitely started out that way in People We Meet on Vacation, Poppy and Alex have an amazing friendship, but I warmed up to the idea of them quickly.

I’m going to start straight off with one of my least favorite things about a book ever: Alex Nilsen’s puppy face. Why on earth a 30-year-old man needed to make a puppy face upwards of ten times throughout an adult romance novel is beyond me. I probably took off a star just for this disaster.

Otherwise I never really had any strong feelings on the book. It was mediocre, I didn’t love it and I didn’t hate it. My mother, however, did hate it, but that’s not really relevant to my opinion. It was a fine read, I read it in about two hours, but I wouldn’t really recommend it.

⭐️⭐️⭐️/5

I live in the United States in the Northeast. I love to read and it’s my main hobby. I mainly read fantasy novels, but most books are ones that I enjoy.
