August and Everything After

By: Jennifer Salvato Doktorski

Narrated by: Emily Lawrence

Graduation was supposed to be a relief. Except Quinn can't avoid the rumors that plagued her throughout high school or the barrage of well-intentioned questions about her college plans. How is she supposed to know what she wants to do for the next four years, let alone the rest of her life? And why does no one understand that it's hard for her to think about the future - or feel as if she even deserves one - when her best friend is dead?

Spending the summer with her aunt on the Jersey shore may just be the fresh start Quinn so desperately needs. And when she meets Malcolm, a musician with his own haunted past, she starts to believe in second chances. Can Quinn find love while finding herself?

I wanted to love this book so much but I just didn’t so I’ll keep it short and sweet. Based off the cover I was thinking this was gonna be a summer beachy romance. It was a summer romance but about a recovering drug addict who meets a girl that becomes a temporary drummer in his band. Not expecting that based on said cover of the book. While I like rockstar romances, this just didn’t do it for me. I didn’t feel the chemistry between the two characters at all. The plot was mediocre.
