Summer Girls by Jennifer Dugan
5.0

Oooh my heart. I loved this. I love how this author writes flawed and selfish characters and characters with a heart of gold. I love that she pulls out the nuances of people’s characters and their intentions and doesn’t make anything appear just as they seem. I love how this explored the idea of privilege and how just having a home, being able to attend school, and have loving parents is a privilege that isn’t just all about how much money you have. I love that she makes people confront their privilege and their life and their attitudes. I love how she can make the seemingly unloveable lovable and also some characters just downright awful.  I loved the setting and the emotional rollercoaster that was this book. I loved this couple and seeing their growth and especially the epilogue. 

Note; I listened to the audiobook and it was perfection.
