 The Summer of Broken Rules was an enjoyable and heartwarming read. I liked the mix of light, cute romance with some deeper emotional themes — especially how it touches on grief and family while still keeping the overall tone summery and fun. It felt like the perfect book for a beach day or lazy afternoon. 

The clean romance and charming setting made it easy to get into, and I appreciated the balance between the playful game of Assassin and the more meaningful moments. That said, it didn’t completely blow me away — maybe a bit predictable in parts — but still a solid, feel-good read for fans of YA summer stories.
