Conrad still loves her and Belly isn't sure of her feeling. Will they fall back in love? I've only read the first book buuuutIT'S SO GOOD!!!!!!! And if I get the chance too, I'll try to purchase this book (I read this as a library book) so I can re-read it and read the other two.My expectations before picking up this book I thought were high but after finishing it, I was surprised to see my expectations were surpassed. I usually don't connect with female characters, when I do it usually lasts for the beginning, but with Belly, I related to her 100%. Some times I found myself within her! Jenny Han truly is an amazing writer. This book was gracefully but simply written and the dialogue and the actions from the characters were so authentic, like I could imagine someone saying or doing those things. It was amazing. I'm not the one to pick up a summer-themed YA book, but this book was an exception. Unlike most people, I actually rooted for Jeremiah and Belly to be together, to be honest.
