One of my favorite books! Reads very easily. A book full of love, family, friendship and humor!

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.

The time jumps confused me at times, but I did enjoy it and excited to read the second book

I loved this trilogy! I can't get enough of it. I was so attached to every character, especially Susannah. I do wish Belly's mom had a few chapters about what's been going through her mind, her side of the story.
I'm a sucker for love triangles and this did the job. I usually pick who I liked better between the two, but I simply could not decided (like Belly, lol).
I thought Belly was annoying at first because she cried like A LOT, but she evolved. Though some say her character could be whiny and maybe too emotional, I thought it was honest. When she felt like crying, she cried. As for me, I'd hold it in.
The ending felt a bit abrupt, but I was still happy about the outcome. I, honestly, would not change anything about this trilogy. I think Jenny Han did a pretty good damn job.

ummmm book one: little childish, but cute and fun and I'm down for it.
book two: uuuuhhh okay? Really? We needed a whole book for these characters to be absolute IDIOTS who couldn't figure out that that is the ONE PLACE they should be going? Riiigghhhtt?
book three: SORRY MARRIAGE?? HAHAHHA NOPE BYE DNF.
This series is literally a love triangle and a fucking half with a back and fourth between one brother and the next but never actually going out with either (i think) and then it's like suddenly they're engaged and I swear the mc still acts like 12... I think she is 12 at least in the first one so like she's probably 16 at most in book three and nope I couldn't do it. I wouldn't be surprised if she ends up with the other brother and then back to the fiance or god knows what but jesus no thanks
