pjays 's review for:
This Summer Will Be Different
by Carley Fortune
4.5 stars!
Reading a Carley Fortune book is akin to soaking in the warm summer sun and relishing it (iykyk). I love everything about her summer reads and am so glad I discovered her writing this year.
I really, really loved this book. It was so subtle and sweet and sexy all at once. She has this way of writing that is so gentle but meaningful. I was a little nervous after reading the premise but it turned out great. Felix was a dream and Lucy was so sweet.
There were some things that bothered me: For example, Bridget's big reveal was a bit... underwhelming for me. I honestly thought she was going to say something wild like Lucy's aunt was actually her mom or something. I also wanted a bit more explanation on why Lucy didn't get along with her family super well. I think it was there in a few instances, but not enough for me personally. I also felt like the third act conflict was kind of lackluster and not needed, but I understand why Carley Fortune set up the end of the book that way.
Anyway I enjoyed it and I am officially a Carley Fortune stan!
