We'll Always Have Summer Book 3 in the Summer I Turned Pretty Series

Das Buch ist mitreissend und gut lesbar. Die Geschichte ist gut nachvollziehbar und man kann sich richtig hineinversetzen. Jenny Han hat wieder ein Meisterwerk erstellt.

Für mich der beste Teil der Trilogie. Es ging zwar alles etwas schnell aber das Buch hat dennoch alle Erwartungen erfüllt

Obwohl mir das Ende jetzt wirklich sehr das Herz gebrochen hat, war es ein ganz toller Abschluss dieser cuten summer romance Reihe. Ein ganz angenehmer Schreibstil und leicht zu verstehendes Englisch bei dem man mit Belly und den Fisher-Boys ganz viele Sommergefühle bekommen kann

After really enjoying the first two books (well honestly probably the first more than the second) with their nostalgic teenage summer vibe, I was excited to see how the story would conclude. Those earlier parts perfectly balanced light romance, growing-up anxieties, and just the right amount of drama, which is exactly what I expect from a YA summer story. This final book, however, felt a bit different. It was frustrating to see the sweet and caring boy we got to know in the first two books act like a complete idiot. Jeremiahs choices were confusing, especially considering he has been in love with Belly for so long. It seemed like the author pushed us toward liking Conrad again, rather than letting it come naturally through his actions. That’s why it was hard to understand Belly’s decisions. I couldn’t see why she forgave Jeremiah so easily when she clearly wasn’t over everything that had happened, and it was even more confusing that she decided to get married when she didn’t seem excited about it at all. At times the pacing felt a bit uneven, and some plot points, especially toward the end, felt rushed, which made it harder to fully connect with the story. There were also moments that felt repetitive, and I wished the book had spent a little more time exploring Belly’s emotions and personal growth. On the positive side, the book still delivered the summer nostalgia I love, and I was happy that we got to see a bit more of the nice and caring Conrad. Overall, while it wasn’t as satisfying as the first two books, it was still enjoyable to revisit Belly’s world and the characters I’ve grown attached to.

Ein guter Abschluss für die Reihe, aber auch leider der schwächste Teil. Belly erfüllt hier jegliches Klischee eines "typischen" Mädchens und kann den ein oder anderen nerven, da es wenig Entwicklung ihres Charakters gibt. Ansonsten eine gute Lektüre für einen schönen entspannten Sommer Sonntag.
