    THE INFINITE SUMMER by Morgan Lee Miller

    Click on the cover for my review on Goodreads.

    3.75 stars rounded up.

    There is something about Morgan Lee Miller’s writing that gets me every time. Despite seeing the obligatory conflict coming all the way from Europa, I enjoyed getting to know all the characters, except for Theo (duh). The Infinite Summer is so nerdy and I love that.

    Remi Brenner (bisexual, white) dreams of becoming an astronaut, and enrolling in MIT’s aerospace program is her first step to realizing the dream. But her father threatened Remi to spend the summer with him and celebrity chef stepmother Serena DeLuca or else he wouldn’t pay for her college tuition. What started out as an involuntary trip to Gaslight Shores turns out to be a life-altering journey for Remi as she meets Harper Herbert (lesbian, white), whose parents own the po’boy shop Acadian.

    Content warnings: panic attacks, PTSD, motor accidents, loss of loved ones, surgery, hospitalization, homophobia, outing, conversion therapy (pray the gay away)

    I loved Miller’s YA duology All the Worlds between Us (my review of ATWBU & ATPTY) and have been looking forward to Before. After. Always. for months. And I wasn’t disappointed.

    Dr. Eliza Walsh (31, lesbian) lost her girlfriend of four years when she was eighteen in a car accident where she was the driver. Now, thirteen years later, she is a surgeon on her last year of residency and still not entirely ready to love again. When Blake Navarro (30, lesbian, Mexican American) enters the ER with multiple fractures after a motorcycle accident, Eliza becomes intrigued by this flirty patient. After discharge, Eliza decides to take up on Blake’s invitation to Mezcal Cocina where she works as a head chef. Would it be so wrong to get to know this reckless woman?

    All the Paths to You (All the Worlds Between Us #2) by Morgan Lee Miller

    Quinn Hughes and Kennedy Reed had known each other since they were seven. Before heading off to college, they made a pact: if their paths crossed again after college, they would try to date each other again.

    At twenty three, Quinn was heading to Tokyo Olympics for five swimming events. Right before she left San Francisco, East-Coast Kennedy happened to visit the city and sparks flew. That had to be a sign that they should date again, right?

    Post-Olympics Quinn was not a happy Quinn, but she had Kennedy. As everything else in Quinn’s life came crashing down, would Kennedy be her anchor, or would she lose everything she had ever wanted?

    Cover of All the Worlds Between Us (Morgan Lee Miller)

    All the Worlds Between Us (All the Worlds Between Us #1) by Morgan Lee Miller

    Quinn Hughes never knew why her best friend Kennedy Reed broke off contact after moving away and refused to acknowledge her after moving back. It had been four years since that goodbye peck on the lips when they were thirteen.

    Since then, Quinn had came out, failed to qualify for the Olympics, and did her best to move on from losing her best friend. When she ran into Kennedy in the restroom at a party, they really faced each other for the first time in four years.

    But Quinn could not allow herself to be side-tracked when the swimming World Championships were coming up. Plus, Kennedy had acted that she did not exist for the past four years. Could they pick up from where they left off and be best friends again? Or whatever it was that they were both feeling? With Quinn’s twin brother Liam also crushing on Kennedy, things were destined to end up in a mess. Right?
