Publisher's Summary
Brought to you by Penguin.
Two exes. One pact.
Could this holiday change everything?
Harriet and Wyn are the perfect couple—they go together like bread and butter, gin and tonic, Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds. Except, now they don't.
They broke up six months ago. And they still haven't told anyone.
Which is how they end up sharing a bedroom at the cottage that has been their yearly getaway with their best friends for the past decade. For one glorious week they leave behind their lives, drink far too much wine and soak up the sea air with their favourite people.
Only this year, Harriet and Wyn are lying through their teeth. The cottage is for sale so this is the last time they'll all be together here and they can't bear to break their friends' hearts. So, they'll fake it for one more week.
It's a flawless plan (if you look at it through a pair of sunscreen-smeared sunglasses).
But how can you pretend to be in love with someone—and get away with it—in front of the people who know you best?
Brimming with characters you can't help but fall for and off-the-charts chemistry, Happy Place is Emily Henry's best novel yet.

Great read
Emily Henry is fast becoming a favourite author and an auto-buy author. The narrator does an amazing job with the characters. I was happy to learn she was narratoring this book as she is one of my favourites. And I will choose to listen to a book because she has read it.

Heart achingly beautiful
Gosh I loved this book so much. Emily Henry’s writing is incredibly, as always, but this one is my favourite so far. Julia Whelan’s narration is impeccable, breathing life in to the characters. I truly think her performance made the book 10x better than if I were to read it myself. This book made my heart yearn for deep love, and the themes of deep friendship were so very touching. How beautiful.

IT WASN’T IT FOR ME
I have to say this is my second book that I just felt “meh” after reading. Emily Henry books have been so hyped up. I really wanted to love this one but I honestly was just bored.

Brilliant
Huge fan of Emily Henry. I wasn’t convinced I was going to like this as much as her others but I couldn’t have been more wrong. This is her best yet and Julian Whelan is awesome as usual - I could listen to her all day. The characters were on point and I resonated so much with Harriet and her feelings of being enough - Emily captured it all perfectly.
Can’t wait for your next one Emily ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Emily Henry can do no wrong
I've loved all of Emily's books and this one is no exception. Emily has this way of making me fall in love with her characters and sucking me into the world she creates.
Happy Place is a book that will break your heart in one chapter and piece it back together in the next one.

Engaging story
The storyline is somewhat predictable but still heartwarming and enjoyable enough. Lots of monologue and internal conflict. An easy read.
The narrator was absolutely excellent!
