What a beautiful book!! This is a slowburn, friends to lovers and character based story. We follow Alex (new book boyfriend, he is so sweet omg) and Poppy on their summers and friendship development. I loved reading it, but it's not for everyone: With its detailed descriptions it keeps the pace at medium and slow which can be frustrating at some points but because of that you build a strong connection with the characters. And wow, the characters are so well "made"! Alex isn't the usual love interest you find in new adult books and Poppy is on her way to accept being an adult and it's responsibilities. 
If you are into everything I just mentioned you will probably enjoy this story as much as I did!
