This book is really touching and I found myself constantly thinking about it. Belly is about to spend her last summer at cousin beach before everyone gets too busy to go there any more. She has been going to that beach ever since she was born for the summer. But what happens when the people in her l...
This book was a huge suprise. I thought it was just going to be a romantic piece of fluff but it was so much more. It was emotional and moving and very relateable.
The thing is, Susannah was right. It was a summer I'd never, ever forget. It was the summer everything began. It was the summer I turned pretty. Because for the first time, I felt it. Pretty, Imean.

What a fast read! I was instantly dragged into the story and never felt bored. I can see the appeal of Conrad, but Jere is just that kind of guy I would have found myself always wanting to be around. I love that he was always sticking up for her and that he was the one that always tried to smooth th...
My rating should be 2 1/2 stars, but I bumped it to a full 3. While at times I thought I was really going to like this book, in the end my reaction to it is ambivalent. I didn't hate it but I certainly didn't love it. And since I feel in no way compelled to read the two books that follow as sequels,...
