Beach Read by Emily Henry
This was a cute, fast paced read. January and Gus are both writers, but they write different kinds of books. They also went to college together and now end up being neighbors when January moves into the house her dad bought so he could cheat on her mom. Now her dad is dead, her boyfriend broke up with her because he couldn't handle her emotions surrounding her dads death and the discovery of his affair, and she's broke. She and Gus make a bet, he will write a romance and she will write literary fiction and whoever finishes and sells their book first the other will write a blurb and promote it. Except during this process they fall in love. And his romance isn't exactly romance and her literary fiction doesn't not have a happily ever after. I loved both of these characters, how they learned to communicate with each other and come to terms with their own insecurities. They were real, their fights were real. This was my second Emily Henry book and it will not be my last.
