Description

It’s the summer before senior year of college, and Grace is about to make the worst decision of her life in this “sexy, sun-drenched cocktail of chaotic good fun and heartfelt hilarity” (Sarah Kuhn, author of the Heroine Complex series) that captures the messiness of your early twenties, while highlighting the necessity of girlfriends at any—and every—age.

How far would you go to win back an ex?

If Grace is being honest, she knows her choices skate past questionable and probably into destructive. But her heart is broken and the guy who broke it—her ex Josh—keeps hinting at a reunion. So when her best friends, Tiff and Camille, suggest they take a girls trip to help her get over her heartache, Grace doesn’t hesitate to recommend Cancún. She just doesn’t mention that Josh also happens to be there.

But juggling her friends, Josh, and the increasing number of lies she’s telling is a lot harder than she expected. And things only get more complicated when she clicks with a hot local guy, Daniel, who turns out to be half Taiwanese too. As the days unfold, Grace starts to think maybe she’ll get away with it. But will her past decisions and her need for closure come back to ruin the relationships that matter most to her?

“Full of true friendship, deep self-discovery, and all the swoons,” (Courtney Kae, author of In the Event of Love), The Breakup Vacation captures the hilarious chaos of being twenty-one, when love is still new, when adulthood feels so close and yet so far away, and when friends are everything.

Featured Reviews

Thank you to NetGalley, Simon and Schuster Canada, and MTV Books for an advanced electronic copy of this book in exchange for an honest review!

It's the summer before senior year of college, and Grace is hung up on her ex, Josh. He dumped her, but he's still receiving the "benefits," and Grace is convinced that she can win him back. When he goes to Cancun for the summer, she convinces her friends that they should go on a girls' trip to Cancun too, not filling them in on her plan (they hate Josh, as great friends would). What she doesn't plan on is meeting Daniel - sexy, kind, and with a chemistry that just clicks. It feels like more than a vacation fling, but with the Josh drama, that's all it can be, right?

This book is messy and chaotic and I know that some reviews bashed this book for that reason, but to me, that's what made it so great! There was a bunch of dialogue about being mixed race/appearing racially ambigious, which was really cool to read in fiction.

Keep in mind that this book is under MTV Entertainment! If you want a clean and tidy romantic comedy, this isn't it! It's messy and dramatic and raunchy, but if you like that, you'll have a great time!

CW: sexual activity, cursing, alcohol use
