Summer Girls by Jennifer Dugan left me with some mixed feelings. I really enjoyed the sweet dynamic between Cass and Birdie once they finally got together—their banter was fun, and their soft moments were heartwarming. However, the way the rich vs. poor dynamic played out between them didn’t quite work for me.
One thing that stood out was the lack of communication. It felt like they were having the same argument over and over again, which got a little frustrating at times. That said, neither character was perfect, and they both made mistakes in their relationship, which feels realistic for a YA romance.
Despite these issues, the book was a quick and engaging read that kept me hooked enough to finish it in one sitting. It’s a fun summer read for fans of the author and a great pick for anyone looking for a light, romance-filled escape.
