I wanna read Every Summer After so bad. I feel like it'll give me People We Meet on Vacation and Love and Other Words vibes, and I loved both of those 😭💞

[@aishah7066]

It's such an amazing book! I finished it in a day and it was addicting. Kind of also gave me "The Summer I Turned Pretty" vibes :)

[@ella-bx5bs]

i hated every summer after because it was so similar to love and other words. it felt like the author just read love and other words and copies it with a few changed factors.

[@rina-kx7by]

its soo good i just finished it ten minutes ago (read it in one day) and it reminded me so so so so much of love and other words. such a good book genuinely

[@chuubry]

@@ella-bx5bs for real but i didnr hate it cause i will die for anything related to love and other words

It’s sooooo good I fell in love with the characters

[@joellem625]

Lol surprised “it happened one summer” and “hook line and sinker” by Tessa Bailey and “unhoneymooners” by Christina Lauren was not mentioned. They are the ultimate summer books.

[@xkaylas8895]

they aren’t beach house though

[@melxnielong]

Just finished every summer after and I feel like I’m never gonna love two characters & their story more. Ugh it was AMAZING. I hope there’s a movieeeee

[@nia134]

THE LUCKY LIST. its not really beach house but it does take place during the summer and kinda gives off the vibes of that. there's also an unknown event that has happened in this book thats revealed later and the romance between the main character and the person she ends up with in the end is just everything.

[@alexandramonet]

i can't wait for the summer i turned pretty's show! the cast looks so similar to how i imagined the characters :)

[@Alli-jw2rx]

Omg Sara just posted her 5 star reads ✨ and now Steph posted as well eeee what a great day ❤️

Almost everything Abbi Glines is meant to be read in the summer. The Rosemary series is my personal favorite.

[@user-ul1pv2iv4o]

It happened one summer by tessa bailey and Emily henry’s newest book- book lovers are good summer reads too

[@hannahl4269]

no bc i just ordered the summer of broken rules to read when i go to the beach im so excited (i normally don’t read romance but i’ve heard such good things about this book)

i just read Malibu Rising and it was so good!! one of my favorite books so far this year. i feel like a lot of people talk about it and say it was good but they don't hype it up enough or tell what it's about. i love your descriptions bc you give enough info to make me wanna read it, but not too much spoilers. im def gonna get some of these for my summer vacation

[@tanushrees2592]

just finished reading every summer after! i absolutely LOVED it and i've decided that i trust steph's recs with all my heart from now! i highly recommend the book, it was so beautifully written

[@charlottewells]

Finally someone who recommends Alex, Approximately! It’s one of my favourite books of all time and no one ever talks about it

I've been SO into beach vibe friends to lovers trope books rn and loved how u describe the books in so much detail !

Oh my god this is so nuts. Its been over a year since I started watching ur videos and nearly a year since I took ur rec of A Thousand Boy Kisses.

the summer of broken rules (AMAZING BOOK), alex approximately, the summer i turned pretty, beach read (one of the best books ever xx), love and other words (the ending broke me but i adore it) and malibu rising (SO SO GOOD, WAS CRYING THE WHOLE TIME) have my heart.

[@sophiemaeva2717]

Hey Steph I really love your videos, and I just wanted to tell you that I think that you should read books that make u happy and don’t just have to force yourself to read the same book trope over and over. We love hearing about the books in a video even though they’re not all the same (to be honest I even enjoy that more). And I really think you’re amazing. By the way I have an Idea, could you once do a video with all the books you’ve read that have like a side plot or like a second plot, just like a wrap up of these book. Because I love it when in a book there isn’t just one story but it’s as well about for example about another friendship or a family. 🌸🌸🌸🌸🥰🥰
