4.5 stars actually.. and Goodreads should consider making that an option, lol. But anyways.. I loved this book. I know how sometimes YA characters can get a little too cliche in sounding like teenagers (like "Omigod! " or just something real teenagers don't say), but this wasn't the case at all. I loved the main character, Cricket, and even the minor ones like Gavin and Liz. Also I should mention the lovely imagery woven into the story. Beautiful imagery like this is why I love reading summer-y books. I really loved the way the author described and worded even the simplest things and took them to another level. Anyways, I would recommend this book if you're about to head out on the next plane or just roadtripping with family.. or in general actually. This book is cute, sweet, and I don't have any complaints.
