People We Meet on Vacation by Emily Henry

When Poppy met Alex, there was no spark, no chemistry, and no reason to think they'd ever talk again. Alex is quiet, studious, and destined for a future in academia. Poppy is a wild child who only came to U of Chicago to escape small-town life. Over the years, Alex and Poppy's lives take them in different directions, but every summer the two find their way back to each other for a magical week long vacation

Definitely not my cup of tea. I hadn't believed in this relationship for one second.

2.75/5 Stars

I'm honestly debating whether to give this two stars or keep it at three stars.

For the first 90% of this book, I was absolutely loving it and was planning on giving it four stars. But then the last 10% of this book happened and I honestly hated it. It ruined everything for me.

But I don't think the problem is with this book. It deserves all the hype and all the stars. Emily Henrie is the literary definition of a talented author.

The problem is with me. This book just wasn't for me. I found the main character's job unrealistic. I felt like the buildup fell flat. And while I did enjoy Poppy and Alex's relationship, I also didn't think it was anything special. I didn't think Alex was anything special. But I didn't even realize this until the characters were finally together. Like I should have been excited but I was literally just like, “meh...“

Idk. It wasn't for me.
