“It's the imperfections that make things beautiful”
First off someone tell me why Cam Cameron was the only guy to treat her decently? Like when reading this book if I was Belly I would’ve forgotten the Fisher brothers at that point 😂😭
I decided to finally read these because I wanted to finish them asap so I could read them at least before the show ended! So far in boyfriend rating it goes Cam, Jeremiah (I know crazy. I’ve always been team Conrad but he’s honestly so rude to her this whole book), and lastly Conrad! I’m sure my ranks will change but right now those fisher boys had me unaffected.
Also, why would Jeremiah think it’s okay to hit on Belly KNOWING his brother likes her? What a terrible brother. The logic there is insane

Read this with my pre-teen once the show got popular (read before the show). It’s absolutely adorable and I understand why so many kids and young adults love this book.

The pacing was very weird with a lot of back and forth between past and present.

I FLEW through this book! I loved the way it’s written, like you’re truly being told a story. It was so captivating and made you feel like you’re really a part of it.
I did find Belly to be a tad immature, although I know this is told from her point of view as a young teen. Occasionally it was a little confusing with the way she switched between time periods, but you get used to it quickly! It is such a unique way to write a story like this, truly making you feel like you are the kid dealing with all these big feelings and confusing thoughts. You can see the grief in all the characters and how they act, along with the joy that the summers always brought. Immediately starting the second book!!!
