I also loved that this book isn't just a light romance, but it also has a ton of depth and follows the main character dealing with the loss of her sister.

She shut people out just to be with Wit, and that is one of the worst things you could do to other people outside of your "relationship. She decides to continue with her plan to attend Hamilton College and to continue healing with the help of her parents, but she also decides to get a therapist and start a long-distance relationship with Wit, knowing that they will have the opportunity to reunite at Martha’s Vineyard next summer. i won a school wide game of assassin in 10th grade (so im pretty obsessed with it) and i cant remember ever reading about it in a book. the summer love aspect >>> like i think the author took the premise of meeting someone and not being able to stay away SO WELL. everyone is helping each other to create the perfect wedding and even in basic days there is always this connection between them where one of them sets the table, other prepares the meal, another one takes care of kids where the other goes to market for missing things- it’s just that perfect big family.You open it and you’re suddenly transported into this summery, wonderfully warm setting and you don’t ever want to leave it. he can sense that meredith needs support or some space, understand what she thinks just by eye contact and he really shows that he want to be with meredith, not just says it.

A past fatal car accident is described but not gory, and an important backdrop is a family game of Assassin involving squirt guns and playacting murder and death.The mix of budding romance, competitive hijinks, a close-knit circle, as well as dealing with loss make for a satisfying read. Fans of the genre (and Taylor Swift fans) will enjoy this breezy romance that checks so many boxes as a fun, light, beach read.
