Wanted to see what all the hype was out. Haven’t watched the show yet because I wanted to read the series first. I have this problem where I don’t watch movies or shows because I want to read the book first, and then I never read the book, which means I never watch the show. I remember we were going to see The Help at the movie theater when I was in middle school, and I made everyone go see Leap Year instead because I wanted to read the book first. (But let’s be real, Leap Year was a great choice, too.) Have I ever read The Help? No. Which means I never ended up seeing the movie.

I was a little disappointed in this book. I loved the setting and the whole summer house thing but:

1.) the writing confused me. I often didn’t know if we were in the past or present.

2.) I see many reviews about how whiny Belly is, but what about those boys? I thought they were awful. Conrad seemed whiny is in his own sense and I thought they were both jerks.

I will continue to read the series to see what happens.
