Happy Place by Emily Henry
5.0
nobody gets me out of a slump like emily henry does
i love when i finish a book and i'm left a little bit sad but grateful, like i need to go for a really long, thought provoking walk after finishing it. I don't know how to explain it but this book did it for me. i found myself wanting the book to go on forever because I was enjoying myself so much. the characters and the relationships were also very special. and this brought me back to my twitter era when my thing was second chance romances lol
i was gonna say, i don't know why this made me so emotional but i literally just got my period lol. but still, a lot of things that were written felt like things i've been thinking about recently. i think simple synchronicities like this are beautiful, like the universe is reassuring me of what im feeling or thinking. both harry & wyn had qualities that reminded me of myself, the not feeling good enough, the people pleasing, the insecurities, wanting everything to just and okay all the time, etc etc. and that's what i love about these books, they're not only fun little rom coms, easy, fun entertaining reads, but they also always have some depth, and i'm always able to relate to them in one way or another.
i guess everything is a little more meaningful after what happened. i see marts in everything that i read, watch or listen to. i'm always thinking of her. and now i know that she's most probably the one sending me these new pieces of media to enjoy from wherever she is. but also, the way this book touched on grief, loss, love and friendships, how could I not think of her? human connection is a very beautiful thing.
this is gonna get deep guys, just bare with me lol. i'm glad I was somehow able to connect to her while reading this book. maybe that's what i've been searching for since it happened, a way to feel connected to her or to what i'm feeling. and i just haven't ENJOYED reading like I used to. I'm glad I picked this up, it brought out a lot of emotions.
okay, that's enough. haven't done one of these fun little journal entries in a while. good evening :,)
