Happy Place by Emily Henry

Me throughout any Emily Henry book with the MC: 

I love Emily Henry. I love my ship. I will protect. Like. I just love them and I want to hug them and like....never let them go.
But also, like. Friends growing as people and changing and relationships changing. I don't appreciate being called out

A Million Junes by Emily Henry

Ok but all of the Eden and Genesis imagery. and the Adam and Eve and snakes and jfkdlsajjikl. I love it. 
Do I want to go through and find all of the references.yes.
It's the talking about writing for me.
They keep calling Jack "Junior" and my brain just jumps to Indiana Jones.

People We Meet on Vacation by Emily Henry

THE CAT IS NAMED FLANNERY O'CONNOR
I just like....I feel personally attacked because I also wanted to be a travel writer and meet people and make connections and tell their stories so I'm like... Emily Henry knows how to hit me emotionally. 
So I relate to both Poppy and Alex (and also yes I thought of going to UChicago, so really hitting where it hurts)
The requited unrequited love and the yearning and the angst. I loved how we saw the past trips and the current trip.  
I just wanna hug Alex all day because like...backstory.

Taylor Swift Song: Lovers

Book Lovers by Emily Henry

Sooooo I'm hoping there's cameos. 
just say they're wearing chacos, it'll make me feel seen. 
Such an oldest sibling..
"I'm fine"
He sneaky and I love it..
*remembers a "throwaway" line about a character, that probably isn't a throwaway line: well this isn't going to go well if it follows the tropes....*gets to end of book: ha I was wrong
The way that the mom is described just reminds me of how Kathleen described her mom in You've Got Mail. 
I love Nora so much...and Charlie...

Beach Read by Emily Henry

"January is a unique name...It's not like I'm a Christy or a Christine" ....rude. 
Maybe depressed writers can only write depressing books...laughs uncomfortably
"promise not to fall in love with me"
Alexa play basically every song from Folklore cause it could be relevant.
hey look that's trauma that's been normalized when it shouldn't have been.
It's the people watching and the bouncing ideas of each other and being neighbors at the lake for me. 
I will protect Gus with literally everything in me--and also I relate to him because he has EMOTIONS that he wants to understand.
