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.

Story
Hallie Piper is turning over a new leaf. After crawling out of a hotel room (hello, rock bottom), she decides it's time to become a full-on adult. She gets a new apartment, a new haircut, and a new wardrobe. But when she logs into the dating app to look for new love, she finds none other than Jack: the guy whose hotel room she'd snuck out of. After agreeing they are absolutely not interested in each other, Jack and Hallie realise that they're each other's perfect wing-person - and join forces in their searches for The One. They even make a wager to see who can find true love first.

Chemist Elizabeth Zott is not your average woman. In fact, Elizabeth Zott would be the first to point out that there is no such thing. But it's the early 1960s and her all-male team at Hastings Research Institute take a very unscientific view of equality. Except for one: Calvin Evans; the lonely, brilliant Nobel-prize-nominated grudge-holder who falls in love with—of all things—her mind. True chemistry results.

But it's off-season, the hotel is falling apart and now she has to share the beach with someone else: a grumpy, stressed-out guy called Finn.

The spark is immediate, and together they get to work on what they love—making games.

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.

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..

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.
