Beach Read
FROM THE #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF PEOPLE WE MEET ON VACATION AND BOOK LOVERS! A romance writer who no longer believes in love and a literary writer stuck in a rut engage in a summer-long challenge that may just upend everything they believe about happily ever afters. Augustus Everett is an acclaimed author of literary fiction. January Andrews writes bestselling romance. When she pens a happily ever after, he kills off his entire cast. They're polar opposites. In fact, the only thing they have in common is that for the next three months, they're living in neighboring beach houses, broke, and bogged down with writer's block. Until, one hazy evening, one thing leads to another and they strike a deal designed to force them out of their creative ruts: Augustus will spend the summer writing something happy, and January will pen the next Great American Novel. She'll take him on field trips worthy of any rom-com montage, and he'll take her to interview surviving members of a backwoods death cult (obviously). Everyone will finish a book and no one will fall in love. Really.

DISCLAIMER: Don't bother reading this, just go read this book and every other book by Emily Henry.
I am not someone who normally reads in the romance genre.
Horror, crime thrillers featuring serial killers and grimdark fantasy are my beloved genres of choice.
But if there is one thing you can bank on - it's that I will read anything Emily Henry writes.
I adored this book so much. I think it may have usurped BOOK LOVERS by a slim margin. Emily Henry excels at writing books about books for people who love books. I loved the premise, the characters, the banter and even when it made me ugly cry. This author has a knack for putting into words feelings that I have always felt were beyond language.
That's it. That's the review.

If you are familar with Emily Henry’s other books, then this one is just as predictable. But, it’s still a great romantic read.

It took me a few chapters to really get into it. But I really enjoyed it and couldn't put it down after that.

Interesting Characters beautifully written. It is not just a cliché romance book but a story with depth and emotions
