Seventeenth Summer

Reader reviewed by Cherry

This book introduces young adults to rea;l love and its possible feel. Love is expressed as a wonderful feel and I learne that you don't look for love it finds you. It was awesome

I found this book to be a little less interesting than I had hoped. If you're like me and enjoy a little more of a romantic couple then don't read it. Angie and Jack are cute, but they come off more as good friends who go out together than a hard core couple with a lot of romance. This seems to be a book for 11-14 year old girls and that's about all. My age (16) girls wouldn't find it too appealing. I agree with the review before mine, good at the beginning until you find out they only kiss like 2 times. If you want a hard core romance novel, try "The Notebook" by Nocholas Sparks. He's my favorite. Happy reading!

Seventeenth Summer is about a teenager named Angie, who falls in love for the first time. The begining of the novel caught my attention and I liked the book a lot, but towards the mid-end, I was bored and just wanted to finish it already. I really thought that I would love this book, because I love love-stories. But, this one didn't catch my attention at the end. If you like romance novels then I would suggest you give this one a shot, however I did not enjoy it.

I did like this book, I read it easily and it did have some good parts. I just didn't like how boring it got! I read half of it then it got so boring so I put it off for another book...I ended up reading a whole other series before I came across the book again, but this love story about Angie and a Basketball player did have very good parts...I recommend this book, but if ur like me and cant mentally sit still, skipping parts doesnt really matter^.^...

This book which takes place in 1940 is so awesome it amazing that this girl is going thru the same stuff teens are now days. It amazes me how simple it was back then and I kind of wish I was born back then. I loved this book but it was kind of slow but once you got into the book it was fun!

This book can be a little slow, but its full of details. it shows teen romance back in the 1940's and how simpler life was back then. Angie is more of a shy, outcast. But when she meets Jack, her life chnages in her 17th summer. The book shows heartbreak, romance, and teen life of the time. you'll enjoy it for it has a lot of thought and makes you want to live during this time period to experience the simplicity and peace of it all. Good book!
