In Henry’s new novel, People We Meet on Vacation, we’ve got friends-to-lovers. And, if you are indeed a fan of romance-novel tropes (much like me), then you’ve come to the right place. ![]() Henry has made a name for herself in taking typical romance-novel tropes and adding modern twists. ![]() It was aptly titled Beach Read and depicted an opposites-attract tale of two vastly different writers who, while living next to each other in their respective beach houses and trying to beat writer’s block, find they have more in common than they think. Last year, New York Times best-selling author Emily Henry delivered perhaps one of the most devourable beach reads in recent memory. ![]() ![]() ![]() We open with a sort of “Previously, on The Dollangangers” montage that reminds of the basics: terrible mom, terrible grandma, kids in attic, siblings make out, and then we take up our story ten years later at Paul’s funeral. ![]() Usual warnings apply: There are some, but not a ton, of spoilers for the end of Petals on the Wind (the book) and for the series as a whole there are SO MANY screencaps because there were so many to be had. Whole chunks of story have been eliminated (bye bye Creepy Paul!) and new ones have been written in (I guess we needed a redhead?) we jump ten years ahead and then cram everything else into one year and the series’ two big mysteries are blown wide open, but all in all, it’s a good damn time. Petals on the Wind! I had pretty high expectations for this one, Petals is probably my second-favorite Andrews book (after My Sweet Audrina, of course) and while I wish some things had stuck closer to the source material, for a two-hour distillation of a 400+ page book, it does a pretty good job. Well, this time I get to write about angry handjobs, so I think it all works out. When I reviewed Flowers in the Attic, I was so disappointed that I didn’t get to write about blood drinking. Andrews fan from …in the Attic wrote a recap of Lifetime TV’s Petals on the Wind and shared it with us. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() She’s only 19 and she leaves her home, penniless, suffer from hunger, taking the suicide mission to cleanse household of Magnus Rochester from the Evil Eye.

I have to admit this is not Jane Eyre’s retelling: the only resemblances with the classic are claustrophobic mansion/ castle premise, names and resilient, young heroine.

When the lights go out you will understand. I keep thinking about the Three Days Grace song with Miah, the lyrics from Pain: and it disturbs the hell out of me that Miah fascinates me like this: there’s nothing, and I mean NOTHING redeemable about him. The need’s there to pull him from the pages, tie him down in a padded cell, break him enough to see how he ticks. I go balls in when I find a character like this. And that’s what I absolutely LOVE about his character. I wouldn’t even register on his level of indifference. He’s unlovable, untouchable, a cold bastard in so -so- many ways, but the best thing about him? He wouldn’t give a shit about what I think. I have a list of qualifiers and describers as long as a novel that I can use to describe Miah LaFon: sexual sadist, brutal, aggressive, obsessive, controlling, psychopath. Where to start? Where the mother-in-all hell to start? Okay, I've been itching for so long to get this review out, and now I've bugged (and bugged and bugged) the author for his permission. ![]() |
