The Summers Between Us by Noreen Nanja
3.75
emotional hopeful reflective sad medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

Overall, I liked the premise of this book. Lia and Wes are lovable, complicated characters that showcase growth and reflection of their actions.
The reconciliation felt like it came on so fast and was almost unbelievable for me. The flashbacks worked well as a narrative device. The pregnancy and abortion reveal was handled with grace and felt honest in the plot.
pacing was hard for me but overall the book was worth the read!
