📖Title: The Summer We Ran
✍️Author: Audrey Ingram
📆Pub date: June 3, 2024 (TODAY)

🌼I don’t know what it was about this book, but I COULD NOT STOP READING! The story just flowed so well and I was literally tearing through pages to see how it would end! If you’re in a reading slump, this will get you out of it.

🗳️The name “the summer we ran” has double meaning as the story flashes back and forth between past tense and present day with our main characters Tess and Grant. In the past, they were running from…well, a LOT and in the present they just happen to be running against each other for the position of Governor of Virginia.

🌼Both timelines had me absolutely enamored with the characters and the story. I was STRESSED for both of them; this book does not lack DRAMA!

🗳️Both of the characters were flawed, but I was still hoping for the best for both of them. There were some parts I wasn’t thrilled over (specifically infidelity) and I think things ended a little too abruptly for me personally, but overall the writing stole the show for me. I’ll have to go back and read her previous works because I don’t understand HOW she made this so readable!

⚠️Quite a few heavy topics, check content warnings if you’re concerned or DM me.
