January's pick is People We Meet on Vacation, Emily Henry's beloved novel about friendship, missed timing, and the thin, charged line between "almost" and "always." Polar opposites who forged their bond through a series of summer trips that eventually ended, mysteriously, in silence, Alex and Poppy have been best friends for years. When Poppy realizes she hasn't spoken to Alex in two years, she proposes one last vacation to fix everything. What unfolds is a tender, funny, and emotionally astute exploration of memory, desire, and the stories we tell ourselves about who we're allowed to love. Don't miss the film coming to Netflix on January 9!We will meet in person in the loft at our store at The Mark, 117 S. Pineapple Ave. The book club is $16, which is the cost of your copy of People We Meet on Vacation to be picked up at Bookstore1 any time before our meeting.ABOUT THE BOOK:Poppy and Alex. Alex and Poppy. They have nothing in common. She’s a wild child; he wears khakis. She has insatiable wanderlust; he prefers to stay home with a book. And somehow, ever since a fateful car share home from college many years ago, they are the very best of friends. For most of the year, they live far apart—she’s in New York City, and he’s in their small hometown—but every summer, for a decade, they have taken one glorious week of vacation together.Until two years ago, when they ruined everything. They haven't spoken since.Poppy has everything she should want, but she’s stuck in a rut. When someone asks when she was last truly happy, she knows, without a doubt, it was on that ill-fated, final trip with Alex. And so, she decides to convince her best friend to take one more vacation together—lay everything on the table, make it all right. Miraculously, he agrees.Now she has a week to fix everything. If only she could get around the one big truth that has always stood quietly in the middle of their seemingly perfect relationship.
