This book feels like the vacation I am not able to take this summer. The setting is so beautifully painted that I felt like I was experiencing the relaxing island life this book portrays. The characters felt nuanced and comfortable and the progression in the relationships natural. There was a decent amount of family drama (as all vacations have), but was resolved in a way that made me feel better about the world going forward. It was an easy read that I finished in one sitting and one that I wanted more of as soon as it was finished. I also loved that the book acknowledged some of it's own tropes and rom-com cliches in a way that made it feel fresh and realistic while completely dreamy. Highly recommend this book if you are lucky enough to make it to a beach, or desperately need to get away.
