What is the plot of People We Meet On Vacation?
People We Meet On Vacation is a heartwarming, well-written contemporary love story showing how messy love, friendship, and self-discovery can get.
Centered on Poppy Wright, now a travel blogger turned travel journalist, and Alex Nilsen, a high school literature teacher, the novel traces back their close friendship since college days.
Every summer, they take a trip together despite having very contrasting personalities: Poppy craves spontaneity and adventure, while Alex wants stability. The novel follows their yearly vacations over 12 years, showing how their relationship changes.
As much as they are opposites in some things, Poppy comes to realize that she has fallen in love with Alex. Their friendship faces a snag when they kiss, fully showing that they have different intentions for the relationship, thus putting it on ice for a while. They resume their friendship and go on vacation to Palm Springs, where they wind up having sex.
This sort of really pushes Poppy to realize what she has been thinking and wanting all along. Finally, it hits Poppy: her desire for an adventure is a means to quell loneliness, and conversely, she realizes that when she is with Alex, she feels truly connected and fulfilled.
They decide to be with each other, relocating Alex to New York as Poppy leaves her job in travel journalism to move to New York and write a column about "People You Meet in New York." The book spans summers over the years, though, highlighting how their friendship slowly changed into deep love.
The film adaptation of People We Meet On Vacation will be realized from the book by Emily Henry, brought to life by outstanding performances by Tom Blyth and Emily Bader.
With a story full of love and friendship, this movie could engage audiences just as the book did. Watch out for updates related to the release date and get ready to fall in love with Poppy and Alex all over again.
