For a book called Happy Place this wasn’t a very happy book.

It had it's funny moments. If you like forced proximity romances then this is right up your alley.

oh my gosh the characters in this were amazing and probably my favourite thing about it, i could have read about them forever.

True to its title, a good beach read (or in my case, coach read). Not quite a book about books but both protagonists are authors battling writers block - and family drama. They have a history that is mostly negative and don’t make good first impressions when they reconnect but of course end up falling in love and having streamy sex. Though not nearly as often on the beach as you might expect.
