A Heartfelt Story

Happy Place follows Harriet and Wyn, a couple who secretly broke up months ago but find themselves pretending to still be together during their annual getaway with close friends at a beloved cottage in Maine. As they navigate their unresolved feelings and the pressure to keep up appearances, the story explores love, friendship, and the bittersweet changes that come with growing older. Emily Henry blends humor, heartache, and warmth in this introspective romantic novel about finding your place and your person even when everything feels uncertain. I found the book a little slow to start, but once I reached the last hundred pages, I couldn’t put it down. I absolutely loved Wyn and his dynamic with Harriet felt so genuine and emotional. The friendships were another highlight for me; they added depth and heart to the story and made me wish I could be part of their group. Overall, Happy Place was an enjoyable read that delivered both romance and meaningful reflections on relationships.

MY HAPPY PLACE

"You are in all of my happiest places. You are where my mind goes when it needs to be soothed.” *cries* * adds to favorites* Okay, that was dramatic. But really this book did it for me. Usually, the romance books I read are slightly unrealistic but Happy Place felt more real and raw. Everyone is human, we make mistakes. We miscommunicate, we overthink, we have past traumas, we have mental health problems, etc. This book included some of this and conveyed what it can be like for some people when life moves in a million different directions. This book came out with perfect timing as it was exactly what I needed to read at this moment. The writing in this also felt better than in her previous books ... maybe that was just me?

all time favorite

I have read this book four times--and I cannot get enough of it! This book is filled with romance of all kinds, but my favorite was the relationship showed between the friends. I could rant and rave about this book for hours--Emily Henry is a mastermind.
