Best known for her books “Beach Read” and “People We Meet on Vacation,” Emily Henry’s new book “Happy Place” is a delightful and heartwarming spring-summer romance. The book explores friendship, family, and love. The story takes place in a cottage in Maine where Harriet, Sabrina, and Cleo spend their summers since their college freshman year. Now that Sabrina’s family has decided to sell the cottage, the friend group is spending one last summer in their happy place. Harriet is excited to come back and spend a summer getaway with her best friends until she sees Wyn Conner, her ex-fiance who broke up with her five months ago. Although their split was painful, Harriet is surprised to see Wyn. Because they haven’t told anyone about their breakup, the two decide to pretend they are still together in front of their friends. Widely argued as Henry’s best book yet, the “Happy Place” is a touching and captivating story. This book is a perfect spring read that will leave a smile on your face.
