Just for the Summer by Abby Jimenez

5.0

 emma “the bolder” x justin “stay stay stay”  

 

wow this book is everything. The book started off fun and light with the funny banter/dialogue but this was definitely an emotional roller coaster 

 

This abby jimenez universe is so entwined with all the cameos and Easter eggs ITS INSANE I love it!! 

 

just for the summer is one of abby’s best books yet! the way I was slowly reading this one because I didn’t want the story to end. 

 

Also I read the q&a with the author at the end of the book. I appreciate the love and care the author put into this book especially with the medical professionals she consulted to write for the characters. I also love all the metaphors in the book especially the island house!! I’m a whore for metaphors 

 

Oh to be loved by Justin!!!! HES A GOOD MAN SAVANNAH!! an acts of service king! Like who’s gonna swim and paddle on a tiny floatie for hours for me 

 

“you’re not asking too much, you were just asking the wrong person. ask me instead.” 

 

Ugh I wanna give Emma a big hug!! My heart hurts for Emma so much for what she had to endure on her own. i’m so glad she has maddy and now justin! Even with all the trauma, Emma still remains so beautifully empathic

The only good thing amber has done was being Neil’s karma
