A review by shaipanda
This One Summer by Mariko Tamaki
1.5
I really really did not like this and it just wasn’t for me. As someone else’s review said there’s just a lot of unaddressed things and also a lot of subtle or blatant racism, fat phobia, sexism etc that’s just never addressed and I get that the characters are young and it’s from their perspective but I really just did not enjoy this
Additionally I just have a personal preference where I don’t really tend to like books where the whole vibe is just - sad which this book 100% is
I figured I’d give this a 2.75 or 3 in the middle but I just disliked it more and more the further I went
