The beautiful summer weather has hit where I am and so what could be a better choice than a fun rom com about summer vacations?
The story follows Poppy and Alex who are opposites in every way, but the best of friends. Every year the 2 friends spend a week together on their Summer Trip, regardless of other relationships, jobs, school, etc., until they suddenly stopped speaking after the last Summer Trip 2 years ago.
Desperate to rekindle her friendship with him, Poppy convinces Alex to come on one more Summer Trip, to pretend that whatever happened between them did not happen and things could be just as they were before.
In typical rom com fiction style, things do not go as planned and problems arise constantly, leading them squarely to the one big truth of their relationship.
I thoroughly enjoyed this book, and if you are looking for an easy, summer beach read, Emily Henry’s book is for you.
Originally intended to simply focus on book reviews, over time, KaliDesautelsReads has morphed into its own entity.
I write about issues that are near to my heart, be they political, feminist, motherhood, mental health, or, as the title holds, books.
A thirty-something Canadian woman in my mid-thirties, I have been "super married" to my high school sweetheart since 2006, and together we have two crazy, clever, kind, hilarious, wonderful kids.
My first book - How Not To Blog: Finding Myself, One Post at a Time is available on Amazon (in eBook formats for you clever tech readers, and paperback for those of us who love that new book smell!)
I have tried a podcast - it's still on Apple and Google Podcasts - but writing is where my heart is.
My life changed dramatically when my husband was diagnosed with Stage 3 cancer in 2018, and I am now a writer for a leading Canadian Cancer Non-Profit.
I am lucky enough to have a family that loves me and pushes me to be my best, even if it is outside of my cushiony comfort zone. I have a village of friends that nourish me, mentally, and spiritually.
Welcome to my thoughts. Sit down. Stay a while. Enjoy a cup of coffee!
