 Don’t be fooled by the cover, this story is not a fluffy romcom. It’s heart-wrenching and you’ll need tissues handy. This was the kind of book I had avoided for a while because I knew it was about grief and I wasn’t ready to handle it yet. Now that I felt ready, I am so glad that I read it. Meet Me in Paradise is a beautiful and emotional read. The romance is a secondary plot to the story of Marin dealing with overcoming her fears and gaining her emotional strength. Libby writes this story in a way that I felt connected to the characters and could relate my own personal experiences to Marin’s. The descriptions of the island and more importantly, the people, of Saba are quite amazing. If you’re in the mood for a book that will make you feel some true emotions based on a beautifully told story, pick up Meet Me in Paradise.
