abigailbat 's review for:

Twenty Boy Summer by Sarah Ockler

4.0

---

"According to her best friend Frankie, twenty days in Zanzibar Bay is the perfect opportunity to have a summer fling, and if they meet one boy every day, there's a pretty good chance that Anna will find her first summer romance. Anna lightheartedly agrees to the game, but there's something she hasn't told Frankie - she's already had that kind of romance, and it was with Frankie's older brother, Matt, just before his tragic death one year ago."

This book had me at hello. I was totally invested in the characters and the romance was so sweet and realistic that it really drew me in. The plot dragged a little bit in some places, but it finishes strong, too. Recommended for fans of Elizabeth Scott, Sarah Dessen, etc.
