I had to relook up what this book was really about to write this post…. SOCIAL ENGAGEMENT by Avery Carpenter Forrey All while taking place with a charming Maine backdrop. when close friends start to grow apart and life paths start to deviate. I thought this book tackled issues that so many of us face as we move into adulthood….
But for years they’ve gotten together so well and now, well, they seem to be drifting apart. With the sale of the house looming, they all get together for one last hurrah. In Happy Place, a group of college friends get together at their favorite place, a cottage in Maine owned by one of the friends’ parents. This was another example of book with pretty real-feeling characters. I really like reading Emily Henry’s books and this was no exception. You just want to sit Adelaide down and have an intervention. The book was frustrating to read– but in a real life way. is it really the best romance? Rory is kind of a flake and a bad boyfriend, but Adelaide can’t seem to see the light. Adelaide is working abroad in London and gets swept up in a romance with a “real life prince charming.” But…. I feel like we all have experience dating someone like Rory or have a friend who dated a Rory.
This was an excellent book that felt very “real.” I can actually see people finding the characters, namely the partner Rory, too real. Honestly one of my better reading months and I hope you find a title or two you want to add to your TBR pile.
