Beach Read by Emily Henry
5.0

I have now completed reading all of Emily Henry’s contemporary romance novels, and it would seem I saved her first as the best for last.
Since I am super late to the party, I don’t think any type of plot synopsis is in order. I will say, compared to her other contemporary romance novels, I enjoyed the side characters the most in this book, the heavier themes (like grief, which she usually includes in her novels) were though provoking and nuanced, I loved the premise of two writers swapping genres, and the miscommunications were usually short lived!  the characters actually talked to each other!
As always, Henry’s humor slays me and I wish I could be friends with her IRL. She imbues that hilariously funny and vulnerable personality into all of her characters, and that’s (one of the reasons) why her books are so fantastic - you just want to be BFFs with the main character. I pretty rarely read romance, but I will always read her romance novels! Counting the days until Funny Story!
