A review by emileereadsbooks
Just for the Summer by Abby Jimenez

4.75

From the moment I met these characters, I loved them. And as soon as they began to interact, their chemistry was palpable. Abby Jimenez has a talent that just leaps off the page! 

The magic of real life love is on full display here. Showing up. Being a safe place to land. Being a place to be yourself. Letting someone into your mess. 

There is a lot to contend with here. (check the content warnings) But the hope of a new life that has a new impossible love story has you rooting for Justin and Emma the whole time. 

Abby Jimenez takes you there in her writing. You feel the wind on your face and the grass beneath your feet as you journey this love story with the characters.
