Just as things are finally starting to go right, Poppy returns home to New York, and Alex to Ohio, to do some major self-reflection and contemplate some major life changes. The novel is told from Poppy’s perspective with flash backs to previous trips with Alex placed intermittently throughout. People We Meet on Vacation is a contemporary friends-to-lovers romance novel geared towards women, especially those who enjoy travel. Considering that most of us are not able to travel right now due to COVID-19, I think that this book is a perfect way to escape reality and take a mental vacation this year; in the book, Poppy and Alex do a lot of travelling and end up going on a bunch of fun adventures.
One con that I have is that this book was slow to start; but, once Poppy and Alex got to Palm Springs, the action started to pick-up and the book became more engaging. I also did not really like how the book constantly switched between past and present because it was hard to keep track of. Furthermore, I did not like having to wait until a flashback towards the end of the book to finally figure out what went wrong between Alex and Poppy during their Catalina trip. Overall, I enjoyed reading People We Meet on Vacation and I would recommend it to fans of Talia Hibbert, Jojo Moyes, or Robyn Carr. In my opinion, this jet-setting novel would be perfect to read this summer while sitting by the beach or pool. I gave this book a rating of 9 out of 10. This article was written for "The Nerd Daily".
