It was nice to get a vision of what the characters were up to after 28 Summers’ abrupt ending. I think Link and Bess deserve their own novel. Would love to see where that goes.

Super quick read - not love, not hate, just indifference. Nice to see some loose ends tied up but *spoiler* did everyone need to get back together???

I loved 28 Summers but I had a hard time believing this book. It seemed like a wrap-up, which it was, but not with the creative storytelling I love from Elin Hilderbrand. If you read 28 Summers, you kind of have to read this, though.

Loved the entire book until the last part.

Throughout the sequel to 28 summers, it felt bittersweet following up with the characters after the event of the first book, but I was content with where all the characters were ending up. However, the conclusion to the sequel of the novel made me confused about what was then the point of the 28 summers book because I think it did not do one of the main characters justice.

However, my love for this Elin Hilderbrand originality with this captivating chick flick, summer love, big brother best friend trope captured my heart to the point that I do not think this sequel changed any of that for me.

Nooooooo I thought this would be a good ending to the story but it barely mentioned Mallory and I can’t believe Jake left Ursula because she wanted to move but wouldn’t leave her for Mallory all those years

I should have left well enough alone, but I couldn’t help myself. It was fine. Just fine.

I liked how this book gave us a veiw into some of the minor characters from 28 summers that I loved. I really enjoyed seeing the relationships throight this short novella. Especially leland and fray
 Also I loved seeing the start of bess and links relationship but I feel like they're could be a whole other novella that follows them because I kinda wanna know more
