emharks2008 's review for:

The Summer War by Naomi Novik
4.5
adventurous dark emotional hopeful medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes

Advance copy from Del Rey, Random House Worlds, Inklore (hold on, I need to catch my breath), via NetGalley 

Loved this. I wasn't sure about it at first, so I encourage anyone who has doubts to keep going. I was worried I wouldn't like Celia, but I ended up liking her very much indeed. I loved how the relationships developed and how the characters changed, grew, and realized they could be wrong.
