Day 1: Julia Donnelly eggs my house my first night back in Star Lake, and that's how I know everyone still remembers everything—how I destroyed my relationship with Patrick the night everything happened with his brother, Gabe. How I wrecked their whole family. Now I'm serving out my summer like a jail sentence: Just ninety-nine days till I can leave for college, and be done.
Day 4: A nasty note on my windshield makes it clear Julia isn't finished. I'm expecting a fight when someone taps me on the shoulder, but it's just Gabe, home from college and actually happy to see me. "For what it's worth, Molly Barlow," he says, "I'm really glad you're back."
Day 12: Gabe got me to come to this party, and I'm actually having fun. I think he's about to kiss me—and that's when I see Patrick. My Patrick, who's supposed to be clear across the country. My Patrick, who's never going to forgive me.
From Goodreads:
The irresistible sequel to the bestselling 99 Days.
Molly Barlow isn't that girl anymore. A business major at her college in Boston, she's reinvented herself after everything that went down a year ago . . . after all the people she hurt and the family she tore apart.
Slowly, life is getting back to normal. Molly has just said "I love you" to her new boyfriend, Ian, and they are off on a romantic European vacation together, starting with scenic London. But there on a Tube platform, the past catches up to her in the form of Gabe, her ex, traveling on his own parallel vacation with new girlfriend Sadie.
After comparing itineraries, Ian ends up extending an invite for Gabe and Sadie to join them on the next leg of their trip, to Ireland. Sadie, who's dying to go there, jumps at the prospect. And Molly and Gabe can't bring themselves to tell the truth about who they once were to each other to their new significant others.
Now Molly has to spend nine days and nine nights with the boy she once loved, the boy whose heart she shredded, without Ian knowing. Will she make it through as new, improved Molly, or will everything that happened between her and Gabe come rushing back?
My first review of 99 Days
My Review:
Yeah, I really enjoyed reading these books! It's been a while since I first read 99 Days, so of course I had to read it again before I read 9 Days and 9 Nights! And I'm glad I did, because I pretty much totally forgot what happened!
I really enjoyed Molly going on this journey again, of this time before she goes off to college, stuck in her hometown with the trio of three siblings that she has complicated relationships with. It was just so easy and enjoyable to read!
9 Days and 9 Nights, it well, of course happens much quicker than the first book. Plus there's a smaller cast of characters, but some new ones as well, which was really great. And that they're in Europe and exploring, that's so interesting!
The synopsis hinted at Molly and Gabe getting together. I wasn't sure if I wanted that, because of their past together. And yeah, I really enjoyed how it all worked out. Sure, there was drama, but that's what makes reading fun!
Loved reading these books, they were really sweet and wonderful reads!
