A review by andrea_connors
Cool for the Summer by Dahlia Adler
medium-paced
3.5
*I received this book from NetGalley in return for a honest review*
Lara has always had a crush on Chase, football star and all around popular dude, but when she spends a summer with her mom for work she ends up falling for Jasmine and having a whirlwind romance. But when Jasmine shows up at school in the fall and treats her as if she doesn't exist, while Chase seems to see her for the first time, Lara really doesn't know what to do.
This is a really fun book about figuring things out about yourself, what friends and relationships really mean, and existing in the confusing world of high school. The story jumps back and forth between the school year and the past summer to fill in gaps between the two and did a good job of weaving the story and characters together.
