zinelib 's review for:

That Summer Feeling by Bridget Morrissey
3.5
hopeful medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Plot
Strong character development: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: No

This novel is fine. I wouldn't recommend it because there are too many books to be read, but it's not the worst. The story involves a divorced woman going to an adult summer camp with her sister to find herself, heal something, whatever. She ends up with a roommate she makes fast friends with, and it turns out that the roommate's brother is someone the protag had a magical moment with in an airport. 

One thing that was weird/frustrating is that the sister was supposed to be Her Person, but when a boat is upended in the lake, the protag thinks only of her love interest. The sister stays on the sidelines other than a token exchange in the denouement.
