"I thought the book and the series was good there were some differences, but nothing major. Im looking forward to the next season. "

Melissa

"Quick, easy read. Reminds me of teenage years and first loves gone by. Young girl caught between first love feelings for one brother and budding feelings for another brother. The setting of it, at a beach in a beautiful house, really sets the scene. The show on Prime really makes it come alive and although it deviates from the book, it definitely adds to it."

Danielle Henry

"Cute, easy read! Can easily finish in one day. I wish I read the book before I watched the series. But still enjoyed both very much."

Courtney W

"ok the end of this book was actually so sad?? I’ve wanted to read this forever before I watched the show and now I’m just sad. This was a quick read and I really liked it"

Gabby Lucas

"I’m not a big reader, but i definitely enjoyed this book. The series is also SO SO good. There are some differences, but not any major plot differences. Conrad is definitely more likable in the show though."

"Reading this and then immediately watching the show after is the way to go. And before you ask, yes, that's exactly what I spent my entire day doing:)"

"I lovedddd this book! I was wanting to watch it, but I decided to read the books first since the books are 99.9% always better… I should have bought all 3 at once, because now I want to immediately start the second one "
