"So I just keep holding on to him and tell myself that, for now, I should enjoy this moment. I’m on vacation. Vacations always end. It’s the very fact that it’s finite that makes traveling special.

Above are my favorite lines from Emily Henry's People We Meet on Vacation, and I swear, it speaks to me. This year I am...
