Beach Read is exactly the witty, charming and swoony novel we always want; it also happens to be the unexpected wallop of emotional wisdom and sly social commentary we need right now. I adored it, A smart, witty, warm, sexy novel ... Perfect escapism. I loved this book from the first page and can't wait to read more from Emily Henry, A great escapist beach read but so much more as well. Emily writes beautifully, almost poetically in places and I will certainly look out for her work in the future. 5 stars!, A clever and witty novel that will make your nerve-endings sigh with happiness, I would say this book is so much more than "just a beach read" but to do so would completely miss the point! As January reminds the reader and the perfectly-painted Gus alike, romantic comedies take skill, heart and guts to traverse the depths of what it means to fall in love - and Emily Henry makes sure this book has it all

Emily Henry is the author of the butterfly-inducing romantic comedies Beach Read, You & Me on Vacation and Book Lovers, all of which were New York Times bestsellers, with Book Lovers being a Sunday Times bestseller. She studied creative writing at Hope College and now lives and writes in the American Midwest. Happy Place is her fourth novel.
