The Summary
Abby primarily enrolls in a DNA service to help out her buddy and covert love interest, Leo. She already knows who she is: an enthusiastic photographer, a risk-taking tree climber, and Leo and Connie's best buddy.
It's difficult to imagine that Abby and Instagram sensation Savannah Tully, who has shimmering hair, are related, let alone that they have the same parents. This is especially true given that Savannah is only a year and a half older than Abby.
The sensible thing to do? Find each other at summer camp (of course) and discover the reason Abby's parents placed Savvy for adoption. However, there are difficulties: Savvy is a total narc and a severe rule-follower. Leo is the camp's co-chef, which makes her jealous of Abby's developing love for him. Additionally, her parents' secret poses a threat to cause everything to fall apart.
But being there, putting in the effort, and figuring out how to put all your odd pieces together are all part of life. Because occasionally the most difficult things can also be the best.
My Review
I adored Tweet Cute, and this sequel has just as much personality and fervor. As if the nicest, cutest relationship could successfully combine with a family dispute. Although its storyline incorporated aspects of "the Parent Trap", a first crush from summer camp, and the hunt for a long-lost sister, the romance/angst parts were not overdone.
I like how each character is real and convincing. Despite their flaws, they are undeniably relatable. Since the supporting cast members were all just as well developed as our main characters, I came to adore them all.
Another thing I really like about this book is how much time is spent on the relationship between the two sisters, Abby and Savvy, as well as their interactions with their parents. I really enjoyed seeing them grow and uncover the truths about their pasts.
But since this story, in my opinion, is more about the family, you might feel a little let down if you're anticipating a full-on romance. Even yet, the romantic subplot is fantastic and fits in nicely with the main story of the sisters.
The writing has a distinct comfort to it. If you've read Emma Lord's first book, you might be familiar with her humorous writing style. Lord's particular wit and comedy are there in both of these works, which kept me laughing the entire time.
Overall, it was a lot of joy to read this book. I'd heartily recommend it if you're looking for a decent contemporary with themes of coming-of-age or perhaps something like to "The Parent Trap."
My ratings score:
★★★★★ Fantastic! Made me go through a lot of emotions & the entire book is incredibly beautifully done!
★★★★ Memorable! Despite its shortcomings, this book was incredible and taught us a lot.
★★★ Good work! Nothing particularly remarkable, but still nice.
★★ Meh... Mediocre with great room for improvement.
★ Extremely Poor.
