If It Makes You Happy
by Claire Kann
As always, Winnie is heading to Misty Haven for the summer to spend time with her ungirlfriend Cara and work at her grandma’s diner. What she doesn’t expect is to be crowned Misty Haven’s Summer Queen, alongside her secret crush Dallas, the Summer King. In the meantime, Cara is entering a cooking competition in town, and Winnie decides that she should enter her grandma’s diner, too, with the hopes of putting the winnings toward getting a new oven for the diner.
This was the rare YA book that makes me wonder if I’m getting too old for the genre. Cara was supposedly ok with her and Winnie’s QPR being open for Winnie, but when someone else is interested in Winnie, she becomes jealous and sabotages it; I wasn’t a fan. There were a lot of side plots going on, making it feel like we didn’t get to spend enough time on any one plot. I did like the relationship between Winnie and her little brother.
Many thanks to NetGalley for providing me an audio ARC of this book.
