I really enjoyed The Summer of Yes by Courtney Walsh. I felt like it was a self-help book for myself about embracing life and saying yes to things that I normally wouldn't say yes to. Things that bring me fear or make me say "But what if..." 

A quote that stuck with me was "I've dared to hope for things I want, rejecting the worst-case scenario-- that dreaded voice of doom that accompanies every exciting thing. I haven't mastered it, but I'm learning ." I am a wort-case scenario person and I feel like I related so much to this book. 

Things I liked about this book:
- The connection between the main characters and how their lives intertwined and how they helped each other in different ways.

- The concept of saying yes to things you normally wouldn't and flipping the script on the what-if's. Instead of "what if ____ happens" it's now "What if it's amazing? What if it's fun and exciting and inspiring?" Being a what-if worst case scenario person I loved the flip and putting a positive spin on the "what if..." question. 

- The various relationships between the characters. 

- The dual POV between Kelsey and Georgina. They were so different and it was important to understand both and hear from both of them.

The narration was good. I am so glad that Geogina's personality came through in the narration. I would recommend this on audio. 

This is my 3rd book by Courtney Walsh and they are just clean, feel good books that make me smile.
