3.75, this felt like a more mature, Canadian version of The Summer I Turned Pretty. I loved this book up until the “twist” near the end which I did not see coming nor enjoy. Regardless I liked the characters and it does the job of being a fun little summer romance book!

I gave Every Summer After 5 stars because it gave me all the nostalgic, emotional, summertime feels I didn’t know I needed. This book felt like a warm hug and a punch to the gut at the same time. It’s one of those stories that pulls you in with the soft, cozy lake town setting, and then keeps you there with all the tension, heartbreak, and love.
The timeline goes back and forth between past and present, and it’s done so well. You get to watch this relationship build from the ground up while also seeing where things went wrong. It’s messy in the most human way, and I loved that. The characters felt real, flawed, emotional, and trying their best, and I was rooting for them the entire time.
It’s beautifully written, easy to binge, and leaves a little ache in your heart in the best way.
