![]() Instead, utilizing the he said/she said style of the series, the reader sees her real life, real feelings, and struggles to interact with her world. ![]() You can hear her say, as Summer does, “ I will forever strive to be Coco Chanel, and I will forever fail because nobody can be Coco Chanel.” Summer has ADHD and a frenetic energy that pushes the reader forward, forward, forward… It would have been easy to write her character in cliches, more like the GG version I started with. She very quickly became her own person, more like Elle Woods. Kennedy’s Summer is so much more though, and as a GG devotee, that’s saying a lot. Because my brain has to cast the movie of every book I read, Summer was Summer Huntzberger from the Gilmore Girls. At first glance, Summer is a wealthy, wild, entitled child who invites drama and leaves chaos in her wake. ![]() It’s her main character Summer Heyward-Di Laurentis’ fault. Phew! * Slaps desk* Done! I really do try to take my time and savor books from authors I love, but Elle Kennedy made that impossible with The Chase, the first book in the Briar U series. ![]()
