"It was long 😔"

Janette White

"So… it was a book. That’s really all I have to say. The backstory was good and interesting, but I never got super invested. Also, the part with stealing the boat? What was the point? Most of the romance was cute, but happened without anything leading up to it. There was no hinting, it was just that he liked her and she liked him and that was it. Not much subtle flirting or anything, which I do prefer. It wasn’t bad, a little better than some I’ve read, but it wasn’t the best."

"A simple book that I read because I started it in the beginning of high school & felt like I owed it to myself to read. This book isn’t unpredictable in any way & the vocabulary makes this a super fast read, but it’s a good book if you want a feel-good story & flashbacks to reading Wattpad, haha. "

"It was a cute summer book. I got it for $3.00 and for that cheap of a price, it was still a really good YA book. Some parts, I do wish were different though...like the ending. Guess it means I need the next book! :P"
