Evocative and funny, Beach Read is the story I didn’t know I needed!

Emily Henry is well-known for her Young Adult Fiction, but this Adult Contemporary Romance/Women’s Fiction proves she can captivate an audience regardless of age!

Full of quirky personalities, awkward encounters, and witty dialogue, I felt totally invested in the cast of characters and immersed in the small, Michigan town where the story takes place. There is a lot of depth and emotion that I didn’t entirely expect but connected me even further to the story.

I absolutely loved the dynamic between Gus and January. They have history and a rivalry which makes for a lot of great banter. They are both a little broken with pasts and family drama that haunt them, but they begin to piece themselves (and each other) back together as their relationship progresses, and I couldn’t get enough of them.

Overall, I absolutely recommend Beach Read! Just be warned that it’s not all sunshine and rainbows like the cover and title might lead you to assume. Regardless, this is a beautifully written story that I don’t plan to stop shouting about anytime soon.
