The Summer of Songbirds by Kristy Woodson Harvey
4.75
emotional hopeful tense medium-paced

I love how Kristy's books feel like the epitome of summer to me!

This book is foremost about long lasting friendships and the hardships and highs we go through with friends. 

3 best friends that went to a camp together and have stayed friends since need to find a way to save their beloved camp. One of my favorite aspects of this book is the passing of "hard things" between the friends. Letting someone you trust step in for moments that are hard and helping with that burden. That feels like true friendship.

I love the second (and some thirds) changes for some of our characters. I just knew that they would be able to help with these "hard things"  and strengthen their bonds even when it takes a bit to get there. I adored every character except for one that's really toxic! 

Another great summer hit with heart!
