People We Meet on Vacation by Emily Henry

June 16, 2021 by faintingviolet 7 Comments

One of the reading groups I am part of chose People We Meet on Vacation for our August read. I quickly poked around my library catalog and saw that it had a stunning number of holds and put in my request immediately, expecting it to take a month or so for a copy to make its way to me.
