This Was Supposed to Be Just for the Summer (So Why Am I Crying?)

This week we’re talking all things Just for the Summer by Abby Jimenez—and wow, did this one sneak up on us emotionally. What started as a light, flirty summer romance quickly turned into a deeper conversation about timing, grief, and whether “just for now” can ever really be enough. We’re breaking down the themes that hit hardest, the questions we couldn’t stop asking, and the moments that had us texting each other in all caps. (You’ve been there.)And of course, we’re announcing our next Book of the Month—so if you’re reading along with us, stay tuned for what’s coming up next.Grab a coffee and your blanket, get comfy, and come hang out with us—because this episode?
