Postcards from Summer

slow-paced
Lexi receives a box of her long passed mother's things. After receiving the box her step sister and her came up with a plan to have Lexi travel to Mackinac Island to see if she can learn more about her mother. The rest of the book goes back in forth between present time, and when Lexi's mother, Emma lived on Mackinac Island.
If I would have read this book when I was a teenager, I more than likely would have rated it higher. Sadly for me, I find myself finding most YA books predictable; this book being one.
Some of the things I really enjoyed were - the writing, the setting, the fact that it bounced between past (Emma - Lexi's mom), and present (Lexi), the stories of friendships
Some of the things that I did not really enjoy were - the length of the book (it was a 20 hour audiobook), and the love triangle (that feels like it lasted a lifetime)
I want to thank the publisher & netgalley for giving me a free audiobook and letting me leave an honest review.
