The final installment of the summer series is not to be missed. Bittersweet, but it had to come sometime. Overall this book was an excellent read. The first of the series will forever be my favorite, but this one comes close. As it opens we learn that Belly is 18 and about to finish her first year of college. She has been dating Jeremiah since the summer she entered her senior year. Belly learns new things and is upset by them, but decides to set what she knows to the back of her head and go on with life. From there we see her grow from what she endures. Feelings pop up out of nowhere and we see how she deals, just like every other summer novel, but it is sweeter to read. We finally get to see Belly drive off into the sunset with her new last name. Confessions are made, hearts are broken, and tears escape.

We also get a look at Belly and Conrad building a friendship. Doesn't seem to exciting, but it is so sweet to read. It's just a different side of both of them. Or a new side because they are older in this book.

SOME Questions I got! Hope they don't contain any spoilers. You should be able to get into the book not knowing anything! It makes the last read more enjoyable. Being surprised with what is going on is priceless!

1. Was there any drastic change in Belly?
You notice a different tone in Belly now; she is not the hopeful, love sick little 16 year old anymore. I can't say that she isn't completely mature, though some of her choices near the end of the novel prove that she is capable of making good decisions that benefit her well being.

2.How has the family coped since Susannah's death?
It seems that both families have both come to terms that Susannah is truly gone. Though throughout the novel there are parts that her boys needed their mother. To have her there and not to judge them.

3.Did Steven make an appearance (I say this because I love the brother-sister relation between them.)
Steven is actually in this novel, as in the first two we barely saw him if it was not for one of Belly's memories. He is not always agreeing with Belly because he does have to play the role of her big brother. There talks were comforting. I lost my twenty-year-old brother several months ago so I was tearing up a bit.

4.Does it still give the whole sweet summer vibe like the last two?
I would have to say that no, this one did not give of that magical summer vibe. In the past we saw Belly laying out on the beach, letting the day go by just swimming in the ocean. But this book revolves around one thing, I'm sure everyone knows what that is. Belly is too busy with planning and fighting off her true feelings. But in the end of that, in my mind Belly sees the beach house a place with endless possibilities and it is true.

5. In the end, was the boy Belly left, heart broken? Did she leave him wondering or did she give an explanation?
Knowing what kind of person Belly is, you wouldn't even have to ask. Of course she gives an explanation. In the kind of situation it was, I just wouldn't be a good thing. I kind of predicted what they would have happened if she chose the boy I knew she loved best. You just have to take a good look at the personalities. The boy she leaves is heart broken, but...I don't want to ruin it so I will leave it at that.
