This was my first Butternut Lake novel, and I loved it!! First, let's admire this absolutely gorgeous cover! I LOVE all the color! Don't let the cover fool you though--this is NOT an easy breezy summer romance beach read. Yes, there's romance, but the story has so much more depth and complexity than that. The writing was fantastic--it drew me in from the very first page. Though I grew up an only child and can't relate to the biological sister relationship, I loved reading about Win and Poppy's summer together. This is definitely a book about the bond between sisters, and McNear tells it beautifully. Her writing is effortless and flows well, and I devoured the book in just a few days.
I definitely related to Poppy more (maybe because she loved her cat, Sasquatch, so much? I think sweet old Sasquatch was m favorite character!) but I loved both sisters as characters. I also loved Sam, of course, and sweet little Cassie! I loved that she was a baton twirler. This was one of those books where I read it so quickly because I had to know what happened (though slightly predictable) but as I got closer to the end I was sad because I didn't want the book to end--more specifically, I didn't want to leave the fictional world of Butternut Lake!
I mentioned this was my first Butternut Lake novel, and it's the fourth in the series. It worked just fine as a standalone, but now I am eager to read the other books in this series and return to Butternut Lake! I definitely recommend you add this to your summer reading list!

It's good to know that this book stands on its own - that makes it much easier to get into the series if I enjoy this one as much as you did!
