⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ / 4 stars
I. DEVOURED. THIS. BOOK.
The friends-to-lovers, second chance romance hit just right. I appreciated how REAL it was; relationships and life in general are messy. I guessed the catastrophic conflict pretty early on, it was predictable, but it didn't take away from the feelings evoked while reading this book.
For an author's debut, Carley did a fantastic job.
Now, after finishing a book and jotting down a rough review I like to go and look at reviews left by others to see how my perceptions and feelings compare to those of the masses. I try not to let reviews sway my opinion but I am curious about what others think; especially when I really enjoy a book like I did with Every Summer After.
So... Every Summer After has an excellent overall rating but when you get in to the reviews (particularly on Goodreads) I was not prepared for the onslaught of "rip-off" comments. I haven't read the books that some say have been infringed upon so I cannot validate these claims one way or another. I will at some point read the books in question and make my own conclusions.

my first carley fortune book & it wasn’t so bad. I found the pacing to be extremely slow and figured out what secret was being withheld (that wasn’t revealed until the final like 30-40 pages)😭 like miss girl just tell me the hot goss so i know what all the fanfare is about. i promise i wont tell the main character. this was a beautiful love story tho… it just didn’t do much for me
