Much better than a light summer read

Beach Read by Emily Henry

January 11, 2021 by Nart 2 Comments

I put a hold on Beach Read after narfa reviewed this book back in the summer and I can already tell it’s going to be one of my favourite books of 2021. This book follows a romance writer who has become cynical about love and a literary writer stuck in the research stage. To get past their writers block, they swap genres for the summer. Shenanigans ensue. This book tackles what I think is the most taboo subject in romance – deliberate, ongoing infidelity, and […]

CBR12 Book Bingo – Repeat

Beach Read by Emily Henry

September 30, 2020 by randirock 2 Comments

Oh, how I loved this book. It’s not an innovative story-line, but it sure does the trick! Polar opposites strike up a challenge and fall in love in the process. Swoooon! While the concept is as old as time, author Emily Henry makes it fresh with modern background details that bring the characters and setting to life. When I read a good romance, I can feel it throughout my body. The words pulse through my bones. I carry the characters with me for days after. […]

“My Happily Ever After was a strand of strung-together happy-for-nows, extending back not to just a year ago, but to thirty years before.”

Beach Read by Emily Henry

Beach Read is an odd example of a charming romance that I liked a lot, even though I found that I didn’t much like the two main characters. Romance novelist January is reeling — her father died, her boyfriend broke up with her, and she found out (AT HER FATHER’S FUNERAL) that her parents’ marriage wasn’t the perfect love story that she always imagined. She has a book deadline coming up, but she has no ideas and nowhere to live, so she moves into her […]

This one is going in my top ten for 2020. #CBRBingo – Reader’s Choice

Beach Read by Emily Henry

July 30, 2020 by narfna 4 Comments

I loved this. Right up front, though, this is a five star book for me, but probably won’t be for everyone. It just so happened to push quite a few of my personal buttons, and there were things in there that I always enjoy in stories that other people might find dull or uninteresting. First, the cover is a bit misleading, but it doesn’t matter. There’s no one sitting on beach towels relaxing and reading books in here. Not that kind of book, not those […]

Not as fluffy and carefree as the title and cover make it seem

Beach Read by Emily Henry

July 29, 2020 by Malin 1 Comment

#CBR12 Bingo: Pandemic (read what you want) Official book description: Augustus Everett is an acclaimed author of literary fiction. January Andrews writes bestselling romance. When she pens a happily ever after, he kills off his entire cast.   They’re polar opposites.   In fact, the only thing they have in common is that for the next three months, they’re living in neighboring beach houses, broke, and bogged down with writer’s block.   Until, one hazy evening, one thing leads to another and they strike a deal […]
