Maybe I’m just Morgan Elizabeth’s target audience - millennials who have favorite movies and musicians, who find nostalgia when they’re represented and get gitty when they recognize references.
📕 𝗕𝗼𝗼𝗸 𝗜𝗻𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: Cruel Summer by Morgan Elizabeth
📙 𝗦𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗲𝘀: Seasons of Revenge character series. Book 2.
📗 𝗥𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗗𝗲𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗹𝘀: E-book on Kindle. 🆓 on KU.
📘 𝗚𝗲𝗻𝗿𝗲: Contemporary romance
📔 𝗧𝗿𝗼𝗽𝗲𝘀: Just for the summer, age gap, instalove, vacation vibes, female friendship.
📖 𝗦𝘆𝗻𝗼𝗽𝘀𝗶𝘀: Cami gets the job of a lifetime managing events for an upscale beach club. But the rich and ultra rich come with drama, petty pranks and mean girls everywhere. Her only respite? The hot bartender who is spending every minute convincing her to give him a chance.
🌟 𝗥𝗲𝘃𝗶𝗲𝘄: I’m being fair when I point out that Morgan Elizabeth might just hit the right spot for me personally.
Strong pop culture references. Independent femail main characters. Beautiful settings based in the Jersey Shore. Sincerely hot spice. The last two books I’ve read from her - this one and All My Love - have been right up my alley.
I loved Cami in this book - and I loved the subplot that was super Mean Girls coded. Zach was an absolutely quintessential man written by a woman - an ultimate book boyfriend.
I read this book because I have been SUPER intrigued by The Fall of Bradley Reed, and the author herself told me I’d appreciate it more if I read this. So I thought it was almost a throw away - but man it had my attention and I loved it.
𝗥𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴: 4.5/5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐
𝗦𝗽𝗶𝗰𝗲 𝗟𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗹: 3.5/5 🌶🌶🌶
