I read this book all in one go--it was that good. I actually liked this book a lot more than the first one, to tell the truth. Along the way, I found myself relating to each girl in one way or another, which made this book all the more enjoyable for me. And, this time around, the girls seem a lot closer than they did before. Besides that, this book was a lot more scandalous than the first one, and I couldn't bring myself to put this book down! This summer, each of the girls is more daring than t...more

This summer is a whole new summer for Ella, Kelsi, and Beth. Jaime is off at a writing camp and George is working. Beth loves George and she knows it. But she starts having feelings for the lifeguard that keeps flirting with her. Ella is like for that right guy that could be "the one" so no more wild Ella all over all the guys. Kelsi is falling for Tim, but she feels he isn't her type. In Pebble Beach. External Conflict: Kelsi and Ella. Kelsi finds out about Ella sleeping w...more

I read summer boys to : Next summer Summer as an ir book. Beth wants to spend this summer with her boyfriend George. Yet he has a summer job as a painter. This makes Beth really upset. And since George will be out of Beth's site, she will have to spend this summer with her 2 cousins Kelsi and Ella on Pebble Beach. Will Geogre cheat on her or will Beth cheat on him with a cute life guard who's been flirting with her since she has arrived in Pebble Beach.

(summary at the end if you want to skip randomness)Love it! I just finished Next Summer by Hailey Abbott in one day. Not to say it was an easy read though cuz it took me the whole day straight. Never put it down besides when my teacher told me to. :) I'm glad Peter wasn't in this book a lot. And Adam was like taking George away from Beth. I'm so glad for Ella to find The One. I don't think Tim is the right one for Kelsi though. I'm glad there's a next one though because Beth is made for George ...more

I liked this. This showed what love can do to someone, and you just have to stick it out by not doing the bad stuff,(having a one night stand) and just living your life day by day.

When relationships develop from the first summer, situations become troublesome when the summer apporches again. Could these relationships last?

This book was just as good as the first. Again best to read it during the summer but its entertaining any time of the year.

I actually read the book Summer Boys #3 first. → http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/166...
This was quite better than that one after. :)
Again, I didn't like Beth here. George was so-so for me. The only thing I liked in their storyline was the way they talked to each other on the phones. They were so sweet. :) Imma sucker for those things.
I liked Tim here. I loved him. He was my favorite character. Charming, flirtatious and won't give up. :") I loved Kelsi and Tim's kiss at...more

Here's the second book in the Summer Boys series by Hailey Abbott. I was curious to see how different (meaning better) this book would be compared to the first book which I enjoyed but didn't exactly love. My problems in the first book (which you can read here) was the crap that Ella did and then the crap that Jamie did. Both of those girls were totally immature and they just got on my nerves. What's funny is that in the first book, Beth was my favorite but in this book, it was Beth that I wante...more

This book is the second book in the series of Summer Boys by Hailey Abbott. It is about the three Tuttle cousins Kelsi, Ella, and Beth on vacation in their family cottages in Maine. There, they deal wit Summer flings, real relationships, and figuring out what they truly wanted during the Summer. I really liked this book because it has romance that can actually happen to any everyday, normal person. I also liked the book because it was funny and showed you what 3 different girls went through in t...more

Like the first one in the series, I recommend this book for pre-teens/early teens or if you really like gossip. This book really kept me hooked. Took me a day to read over the summer a few years back.

I really liked it. It was a good continuation of the series and I liked how instead of Jamie, Kelsi got her own little spotlight this time. The plot line with the guys was so good, a little predictable, but at the same time you were on the edge thinking "Wait, maybe it won't happen like that." Great story.

Next summer is the seguel to the book Summer Boys. This was an amazing book that was all about love and romance and really had me surprized at the end. I honestly couldn't put the book down with out picking it back up within the next 5 minutes.

I don't even know why I read this series. It's so bland and predictable, like a soap opera, but for some reason I can't stop.

Just keeps getting better. Was good, but not great. I cared for characters. Was bound and determined to read the whole series.

Part 2 in Summer Boys series. Girls are back on summer break with more drams, boys, booze, and sex. This was okay.
Tiny Pants
This book was a world of pain right from page one. If you haven't read the first book, there is no finding your way through it, as nothing is ever described -- the setting, the characters, even that staple of YA fiction, the clothing -- unless these girls can make out with it. Hence, we do get descriptions of the "Summer Boys" of the title, but precious little else. It makes the Katherine Applegate series that was actually retitled "Making Out" (originally "Boyfriends/Gi...more

It was good fluff reading. I didn't read the first one in the series, but don't think it really mattered.

These girls go through some wear and tear, I liked the series. I read this one in one night.

Amy rated it 3 of 5 stars
I think I figured out why this series is just ok to me. The 4 main characters who are cousins are just not very likable. Book two was another summer of hooking up with boys and major drama. That would have been ok with me because i like reading about drama, but i just can't connect with the girls. I'm not sure if it is Abbott's plan to show them as completely self involved in the first 2 books of the series and then have them mature in the last two. I'll probably tackle the last two books jus...more
