"Loved this book. 4 stars for sure. It was gooey fluffy goodness and if you spent your summers around water as a kid / teenager then this book is for you. Meredith and Wit are the cutest YA couple. Their problems feel like actual real world problems. It’s cute but not childish. Just a great feel good summer ending read. "
"I know a lot of people say this is a good book… and it is but, not my thing. Don’t get me wrong I liked it just, there was not really a problem separating the two love interest. Like it felt very bland but it was readable. I just wanted to finish the book really badly so I read it. Personally I didn’t find it interesting. 2.5/5⭐️"
"100% recommend. especially if you hate slow burn romances, (like me!!) stephan is just so so so sweet; i cant even explain how much his lines made me smile, which is slightly embarrassing to admit. I just loved all the fun flirtyness this book had, read the whole thing in one night!!!! The taylor swift referances made me so giddy its insane. You all know bttm by lynn painter is my number one fav and stephan and wes are so similar. I love them so so much. dont even get me started about how wonderful mer is. I just have so much love for these characters. cried for like two hours while reading!! (you all shouldve expected that though)🌶️🌶️/5"
"Since reading this during a bleak winter with no action (just cold, no snow), this book made me miss the summer days, making me desperately want the feeling the mc felt. The way K. L. Walther expressed the family's connection made me wish for something just the same, also how fun it would be just to know their family and play their Assadsin game.
It was really hard to finish this book because I never wanted to leave the imaginary world of Martha's Vineyard.
*such a perfect summer read, definitely recomend*"
