The long-awaited conclusion to Chantel Guertin’s Pippa Greene series is here! For fans of Jenny Han’s To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before series, this equally driven and talented, hyper-focused, total catch of a protagonist is learning her biggest lesson yet.

I have truly enjoyed reading about Pippa’s journey and was impatiently waiting for this book :) I was lucky enough to get an advanced copy and I highly recommend it. Golden Hour was the perfect end to the series and I enjoyed revisiting Pippa’s world. A heart-warming and funny read!

I can’t believe this is the last book in the Pippa Greene series! I think this was the best one yet!

In this book, Pippa’s life is turned upside down, even more than in past novels. She doesn’t get into the only college program she applied to, so she doesn’t know what to do next. She ends up doing things that are completely out of her comfort zone.

The love triangle of Pippa, Dylan, and Ben also came to a conclusion. I was happy with the way it ended, but I was a little surprised at where they all ended up.

This was a satisfying ending to the series, but I really wish the story would continue! This is a short and sweet YA series that you should definitely check out!

I received a copy of this book from the publisher.

Pippa is a senior in high school, passionate about photography with hopes of fulfilling her father’s legacy within Tisch’s photography program.  But, has she inadvertently closed herself off to experiences as she charged toward this perceived plan?  In this fourth and final installment of the Pippa Green Series the reader is reintroduced to the stressors of high school and dramatics of the college search.
 
In full transparency, I did not read the first three books within this series.  Regardless, I did not feel “lost” as I read Golden Hour, but rather sensed I was missing some significant backstory on many of the underlying characters.  Author, Chantel Guertin, did a fantastic job creating her characters as I immediately felt comfortable with Dace and Pippa, despite jumping into their friendship at the finale.  However, the plot and drama within felt mundane and overplayed.  There was nothing that stood out from this book and the MANY other books that cover these same themes.
