A review by joypouros
Summerlong by Dean Bakopoulos
2.0
I enjoy Dean Bakopoulos's writing style, but that's the only good part of this book.
I can buy the small town coincidences in the beginning of the book. Dan meets ABC, Claire meets Charlie, ABC and Charlie meet, Charlie is supposed to call Dan, Claire and ABC know Charlie's dad... I can suspend my disbelief and really dive into the small town aspect of it all. But then at the end, it went from heavily coincidental to insultingly implausible.
I was very frustrated that the cover and blurb don't allude to how dark the book will be.
