Summery: It used to be that Belly counted the days until summer, until she was back at Cousins Beach with Conrad and Jeremiah. But not this year. Not after Susannah got sick again and Conrad stopped caring. Everything that was right and good has fallen apart, leaving Belly wishing summer would never come.
But when Jeremiah calls saying Conrad has disappeared, Belly knows what she must do to make things right again. And it can only happen back at the beach house, the three of them together, the way things used to be. If this summer really and truly is the last summer, it should end the way it started--at Cousins Beach (www.goodreads.com)
Review: I was definitely not expecting myself to love this book. I did a review on the first book in this series and you can tell I was not a big fan. The only reason I read this book was because I had read all the other books on my shelf and wanted to read something. I have to say I like Belly much more in this book because it felt like she was more mature and all the bad things that had happened to her over the year kind of changed her. This book was definitely much better than the first book in the series- which doesn't usually happen. I usually hate love triangles, but I have to say that it made this series much more interesting. I love Han's writing style because I could totally feel all the emotions that Belly was feeling. She also expresses whats going on in a teenage mind very well- the whole overwhelming emotions part. Belly was grieving a lot at the beginning over two losses and I felt that it made her character so much more deeper and not so...flat? I also loved Conrad's character even though he angered me at times. I could understand that his way of expressing his loss over Susannah was by pushing everyone else away and throughout the book his character unravels and you get glimpses of his true character.I also really liked Jeremiah, I mean how could you not? He was so sweet but I'm a sucker for the whole quiet and mysterious (in this case Conrad). Overall I loved this book and would definitely recommend it to anyone whose looking for a good chick lit.
