I did enjoy this book quite a bit, but parts of it felt a little surface-level to me. I wish the scenes in the past had been more fleshed out. I didn't understand why each of the siblings was so obsessed with Dylan. I mean, he seemed like a nice enough guy, I suppose, but I didn't really feel like I knew him at all. Same goes for Quinn's relationship with her siblings before

Dylan's accident.

There are a couple of moments that show their closeness with one another, but not as much as I would've liked. It made the scenes in the present a little lackluster for me as far as those relationships went.

That being said, I loved her relationship with her grandmother, and I also liked her friends quite a bit. The romance was cute, but not a driving force of the story, so I think that even people who don't like romance could enjoy it.

There did seem to be a couple hints of magical realism in this book: the sea monster, the blueberry bushes that produce fruit year-round...but for the most part this was a straight-up contemporary. Honestly, the blueberry thing just felt a little out of place.

I'd definitely be interested in checking out more from this author in the future.
