this book was highly recommended to me, and I have done the same since reading it. It is funny, cute and oh so true! From someone with a similar past, it really puts things into perspective!

Enjoyed this book. Appreciated the way the author handled the themes of mental illness and trauma. Narrators do a good job. An easy listen.

Great plot. Explored mental illness accurately and with sensitivity- excellent narration.

Wow! I didn’t see that one coming! Great book that had me in tears at the end! Thanks Abby Jimenez❤️

I laughed out loud and even cried. First audiobook to ever do that. I’ve went in extra walks, sat in my car, anything just to keep listening. This if my favorite of Jimmenz’s book. Her writing is warm, so incredibly smart, funny and just plain good. Narrators are fantastic l!!! I will also say that I always take something from her books, a life lesson of some sort. Appreciate that.

This book was worth the wait. Loved it so much I listened to it twice. I can see this one becoming a movie.

As for the Romance story, it was great. However, this book was more of a Mental Health awareness book. Also, the narrators did a great job, I didn’t particularly like them narrating the other characters during “their” chapter.

I loved this story! The humor was great and made me laugh out loud at times! The story had a couple predictable areas, but the journey made me proud of both of them.

I loved it SO much! Probably my favorite of Abby’s! She is an excellent writer and so intentional with her characters and their development. I love this book, less for the romantic story line between the two main characters and more about the light that is shed on childhood trauma and the impact it has on our relationships. While this book isn’t as romantically charged as some of her others. It really focuses on steady and constant love that is found in the real and mundane of every day life.

Highly recommend this book. Written so well

Enjoyed this book very much and the narrator was amazing!

I absolutely loved this book, I wish I would have done more research on it. I did not know it was part of a series, I will be listening to the other books as well!!! A MUST READ!!

I love it that the author brings in Minnesota places in her books. Her “Easter eggs” are fun to spot. More specifically though this book sucked me in. I felt tense reading about the main character’s past. Whenever her mom was around I could feel the tension. I appreciate how she brings in serious topics, but also makes me laugh. Her books are so relatable. I love how this story winds up and that she brings in people we have met in other books. Another amazing read by Abby Jimenez!!

I have loved every single Abby Jimenez book…they’re all in my Reread Collection. When Just for the Summer came out, some reviews mentioned there were potential triggers that I was concerned could be difficult for me, so I was cautious…but still dying to read it. I bought the book and left it TBR for a couple of months. Am I ever glad I read this book! Yes, there are topics in the books that, if written by other authors, could have been triggering for me. But with Abby’s diligent approach, intentional sensitivity, and masterful writing, I wasn’t triggered at all. Not only did I absolutely LOVE Just for the Summer, I was able to reflect on my own experiences in a new way. I found Just for the Summer to be bibliotherapeutic at the highest level for me. Bibliotherapy is enjoying books alongside other approaches to self improvement (most often in educational and counseling settings) to grow and develop as a person. It happens naturally, to a degree, for most readers. As a children’s literature specialist and professor of education for over 30 years who’s studied bibliotherapy as an aspect of helping students, I can only give Jimenez the highest praise. Never have I read an adult novel in the romance genre that so eloquently took me through a beautiful love story and simultaneously created a nurturing way for me to gain insight on personal experiences. As always, narration by Zachary Webber and Christine Latin allowed me to be fully immersed in the story. I was immediately hooked and finished Just for the Summer within a day. Loved all the nods Jimenez embedded in the story to her previous works. Kudos, once again, for an amazing read!

I really enjoyed this book.

I really enjoyed this book. The two narrators, who have done a previous Jimenez book, are so great. This is the perfect easy read! I highly recommend.

This is an amazing read! highly recommend!

Really enjoyed it!

Very entertain book that had me hooked on the first chapter. It starts out like a quirky fun summer read but has real depth! Great narration and story line that makes you want to look up all of abby’s other titles!! Keep them coming please!

This is my first Abby Jimenez book but it sure won’t be my last. Great narration. A very moving story mixed in with fun lightness. You could really feel and understand the main characters pain.

Loved this book

Serious and fun wrapped in one!

Enjoyable Some parts a little far fetched but easy enjoyable reading

Well written-I stayed up way too late last night as was very caught up in the story. Finished today -cried/laughed/thought/enjoyed throughout the book.

I was expecting a slightly more lightheaded romance but this deals kind of heavily with trauma. Overall the pacing and the story were interesting and the romance aspects were very sweet and satisfying. Minor plots hole though.

Loves this book! My favorite Abby Jimenez book so far! Narrators are amazing. I couldn’t stop listening, definite five star.

Started a little slow for me but ended up being a great story.

Amazing book! Picked this on a whim before a long car ride and was instantly hooked. It's emotional, funny, and inspiring. I was so invested in these characters and that is truly an incredible writing skill. Will absolutely be reading more of Abby's books!

Very touching books. Love the ending. Great for a young adult reader. Mature themes.

I have never smiled so much at a book! Ridiculously cute

Fun read. Loved it

Loved this book! The narrators did an incredible job with this book. Abby is perfection. Definitely the book of the summer!

I loved it ! Great narration !

Loved this book!

Wonderful book. So good for mental health!

Such a sweet, romantic, and funny story. I’ll be honest, after the first 20 minutes or so I considered giving up on this one because it seemed like it was taking a turn towards cheesy. I’m glad I didn’t! I thoroughly enjoyed this listen. The two narrators were also great. Their voices and inflection fit perfectly with the characters. Def listen to this book!
