About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

Two exes. One pact.

Could this holiday change everything?

Harriet and Wyn are the perfect couple—they go together like bread and butter, gin and tonic, Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds. Except, now they don't.

They broke up six months ago. And they still haven't told anyone.

Which is how they end up sharing a bedroom at the cottage that has been their yearly getaway with their best friends for the past decade. For one glorious week they leave behind their lives, drink far too much wine and soak up the sea air with their favourite people.

Only this year, Harriet and Wyn are lying through their teeth. The cottage is for sale so this is the last time they'll all be together here and they can't bear to break their friends' hearts. So, they'll fake it for one more week.

It's a flawless plan (if you look at it through a pair of sunscreen-smeared sunglasses).

But how can you pretend to be in love with someone—and get away with it—in front of the people who know you best?

Brimming with characters you can't help but fall for and off-the-charts chemistry, Happy Place is Emily Henry's best novel yet.

A Decent Enough Second-Chance Romance

3.5/5

This is my first Emily Henry book and I have learnt from just one book that she is an excellent writer with brilliant mastery of her craft. I loved the alternating timelines and how they were placed, with some nicely drawn-out characters (Not Wynn) and conflicts.

Now, there are certain elements in the story that I couldn't completely come to terms with. Some 'meh' drama builds up leading to all the issues. Oh well!
And that is okay, as you might find it just fine.

All that apart, the audiobook was wonderfully narrated.

Expressions of Inner dialogues

The inner dialogues and subtlety of romance and its rawness. I feel story was ordinary but the way it was written was amazing😍

chapter 29 to rest is the main book.

I love Emily henry.. but this book is different than rest of her book.. Alot of childhood traumas are involved,
it's surely is a miscommunication trope but I loved it..
it was really long. It shouldn't have been this long..

It's like therapy.

The first half is a little boring. But then it gets better. The end is a happy place.

Skip it if you dislike miscommunication tropes

It's a good book. It's very well written but I was disappointed by the main reason for the breakup and how it's dealt with. It seemed pretty dumb. Julia's narration makes the book better like always.
