This book is a beautiful mix of overcoming grief (and guilt), moving on from pasts and past relationships that held you back, and building a new future with the one you’ve always loved. This book is filled with yearning. Yearning over your long time crush and yearning over the loss of your sister/friend. I really felt for both June and Levi, they had been through it and were finding their way back to themselves and to each other. At times I felt the pacing was slow, particularly in the last 25%. I did enjoy reading this book. It had me craving a beachside scone. I recommend this to fans of You With a View by Jessica Joyce and Beach Read by Emily Henry.
