i always come to this sub everytime i finish an EH book and i have now finished beach read. 

just so you know my taste, these are the order I read the books in and my ratings: Book Lovers (5); Happy Place (3.5); Funny Story (4); Beach Read (3.75). 

i liked the book! u can see my review in the pic attached - i came here to talk about spoilers ie things i didnt really like about the book: 

1) the sex in the tent, i was grossed out 

2) some parts where gus was pouring his heart out, esp if it was after january pushing him on something, she would like immediately understand and move on; unsure if it’s meant to be that way ie i would think its a self absorbed kind of thing, or henry was just starting to write so that angle was overlooked. 

3) i think the naomi thing, when gus was contemplating about getting back to her idt that scene was well thought-of or written about, it was…weird to say the least because this was already at the end of the book 

4) i like the whole proposing thing and it’s not out of character at all and i love how their small traditions like the notes thing and the pirates of carribeans were referred; but i really just wished i saw that the name Augustus meant differently to Gus now that January was here and his 

5) slightly annoyed as to why is this called beach read…like all the other book titles made sense even PWMOV but this one…a stretch

feeling chatty; let’s talk about beach read
