The Summer of Lost Letters by Hannah Reynolds

5.0

♡ 4.5 ★

♡ A summer romance of a girl thrown into the rich lifestyle all the while trying to find out more about her family history, but owning the fact that she's not rich and being true to herself? Yes, please. This book was a super cute and quick read!

♡ Abigail is a young girl who's obsessed with history, and upon learning where her late grandmother used to live from some old letters, she sets out on a journey to spend a summer there to learn more about her mysterious grandmother's life. She had no motives except to learn about her family history and live an unforgettable summer.

♡ Noah has one last summer at his vacation home in Nantucket before he goes off to Harvard for a Business major at his father's request, but biodiversity is where his interests lie. But as the firstborn son who's been raised to take over the family business, his wants don't matter. But throughout his summer with Abigail, he learns how to see a world where he can prioritize his wants.

♡ Abigail and Noah clash when they realize that their grandparents were long lost loves from years ago. Noah doesn't want to rock the boat and bring up unpleasant memories with his family while Abigail is eager to do some digging on her grandmother's past. Their relationship was written so well, I loved it! The "almost enemies to friends to lovers" trope was so well done, their relationship developed slowly from friendship to dating. The conflict/plot twist had me shook! It was written so well to show how human the characters are in trying to figure out their lives. Top-notch writing!
