Poppy and Alex have gone on vacations together ever since they were in college, however after an ill fated vacation the two haven’t talked in a while. Since then, Poppy has everything she wants but she feels like something is missing. When people ask her the last time she was happy, she is sure it was on that vacation two years ago. So, she convinces Alex to go on one last vacation together and miraculously he agrees. She has one week to fix her relationship with her best friend, will she be able to do it?

Personally I loved this book and I love Emily Henry in general. The way that the book is organized, shifting from the present to the past throughout the different chapters, allows for the readers to discover things as they become relevant in the novel. I think this concept is very interesting. It's a great book to read at any time, especially during the summer or when you're on vacation. I totally recommend this thrilling contemporary friend to lovers romance to anyone.
