If you have to chose between anger or empathy, chose empathy.
Just for the Summer is so worth the hype. Long books intimidate me, but it didn’t feel like a 400 page book. It was fun and real.
I love Justin a lot! And Emma was a good protagonist, too.

This was my first book by Abby Jimenez and what a cute and surprisingly emotional experience. I’ll definitely be checking out more of her work.

the best kind of love doesn‘t happen on moonlit walks and romantic vacations. it happens in between the folds of everyday life. it‘s not grand gestures that show how you feel. it‘s all the little secret things you do to make her life better that you never tell her about.
teilweise hatte ich das gefühl, dass die beste freundin, maddy, gar keine echte person war, sondern eher wie ein deus ex machina oder einfach nur ein plot device. sie hat emma durchweg unterstützt und ihre freundschaft war auf jeden fall glaubwürdig am anfang, aber dann hat sie so viele konflikte gelöst und justin tipps gegeben. ohne maddy hätte hier vieles nicht funktioniert und gleichzeitig hat sie selbst dafür zu wenig action abbekommen. JUSTICE FOR MADDY!!
sonst muss ich sagen, beide protagonisten waren einfach zucker. ich habe die familiendynamik zwischen justin, seinen geschwistern und emma geliebt. emmas mutter, amber, hat für all den tea gesorgt und das ist das einzige, was sie richtig gut gemacht hat.
also sehr empfehlenswertes buch, ich war jetzt aber auch nicht obsessed damit (was man auch echt mal braucht!)

Norovirus plotpoint that my friends and I had a couple of animated discussions about. But I might pick up some other Abby Jimenez books after this :)
