Another fun beach read. We’re not breaking any barriers of literature here, but I’m continuing to enjoy this lighthearted trilogy. As always, Jenny Han is the queen of last-page cliffhangers that leaves you wanting more!

This book was the perfect sequel to 'The Summer I Turned Pretty'. Getting to read from not only Belly's but Jeremiah's point of view really helps you grasp what they are going through. This book focuses on grief and what can happen depending on how you handle that grief. Overall a great book.

i thought it was nice to have jeremiah’s perspective! i have a lot to say about the love interest(s)

belly liking two young, kind boys and her heart being so big and full for her little body at her age is just so relatable

!!! i wish we as a society would encourage men to love louder and to thoroughly feel their feels.

susannah dying and her loved ones refusing to allow her essence to die is everything

i loved this book.
