That Summer by Sarah Dessen
3.0
emotional reflective medium-paced

I picked this up at my local library and the cover and overall colors stood out to me 😂 I was looking for a summery book and this seemed like the perfect choice! 

I ended up switching between the physical book and audiobook and overall had a good time. I did enjoy the story but it felt dull at times. I was expecting more romance but discovered recently that this is the authors first book and the only one that doesn’t include the girl getting a guy! 

This was a fast read and you would probably like it if you don’t like romance that much. This is YA and focused on family and summer time!
