You and Me on Vacation by Emily Henry is an enchanting and heartwarming tale of friendship, discovery, and the thin line between love and companionship. This romance bestseller takes you on a journey through twelve pivotal summers in the lives of two best friends, Poppy and Alex. As they traverse various destinations and life stages, their bond is tested by time, distance, and the unspoken feelings that simmer just below the surface.

'The hottest book of the summer' - Josie Silver

In their first encounter twelve summers ago, Poppy and Alex can't seem to stand each other and are certain they'll never cross paths again. Fast forward to eleven summers ago, and a shared ride home from college changes everything, sparking a deep and lasting friendship cemented by a yearly vacation pact. Each summer trip marks a milestone in their relationship:

12 Summers Ago: Poppy and Alex meet and immediately clash, convinced they'll never speak again.

11 Summers Ago: An unexpected car ride draws them together, forging the friendship that leads to their yearly vacation tradition.

10 Summers Ago: During a trip to Vancouver, Alex's fear of flying is soothed by Poppy's comforting presence as she holds his hand throughout the flight.

7 Summers Ago: In the midst of a wild adventure in New Orleans, they get carried away by the revelry and nearly end up with matching tattoos.

2 Summers Ago: Everything unravels during what was supposed to be another unforgettable trip; the repercussions are profound.

Now, this summer, Poppy extends an invitation for one final trip, a journey that will define their future. Will this adventure mend their fractured friendship, or will it reveal deeper, unspoken truths that alter their lives forever?

Emily Henry masterfully blends humour, romance, and poignant moments to craft a narrative that resonates with anyone who has ever cherished a friendship or pondered the possibility of something more. Filled with witty banter, breathtaking locations, and emotional depth, You and Me on Vacation is the quintessential summer read that celebrates the magic and messiness of love and friendship.
