Seven Summers Review

Seven Summers by Paige Toon

1/5 stars 

I have adored Paige Toon since I was 13 years old (that's a whopping 17 years) and I have never met a book of hers I didn't like... that is, until this one came along.  I don't know what it was about this book, but it just didn't read like the typical Paige Toon (in my opinon).  If I didn't know any better I would speculate that a ghost writer wrote it for her.  Because alllllll the rest of her novels are 5/5 star reads for me.  And this one was barely a 1/5 stars because I almost "DNF"ed it.  The only redeeming part of this book was the ending.  I thought the epilogue was gripping and sweet, but the epilogue is also only about 15 pages or so.  The rest of the book just didn't do it for me, and I'm so sorry about that.  I absolutely hate writing a negative review for Ms. Toon because she's one of my very favorite authors.  But I have to be honest about this book and my feelings towards it.  So please, instead of picking this one up, pick up Lucy in the Sky or Pictures of Lily or *literally* any of her other books.  Please please please!  You won't regret diving into her world.

*Thank you to netgalley and the author for allowing me to read and review this novel.*
