Sisters Abby and Savannah are polar opposites. Abby knows almost nothing about social media; Savannah is a famous Instagram influencer. Abby’s idea of exercise involves skateboarding and climbing trees; Savannah prefers yoga. Abby is a reckless risk-taker; Savannah writes the rules and follows them to a tee. But neither knows the other exists… until Abby signs up for a DNA service and discovers her secret sister: Savannah.

The plan:

1. Attend the same summer camp.
2. Get to know each other.
3. Find out why Savannah was put up for adoption.
4. Keep it a secret from their parents.

As a lifelong fan of The Parent Trap (the soundtrack was the first CD I ever owned!), I had a hunch that I’d love this book and boy oh boy was I right. There’s summer camp vibes, sisterly drama, and family secrets, sprinkled with a little bit of awkward teenage romance. The delicious descriptions of food made my mouth water and gave me dinner ideas. Reading this was pure joy, and who doesn’t need a little joy nowadays? Fans of Erin Hahn, Christine Riccio, and Jenny Han are sure to fall for this delightfully charming and heartfelt story.

Happy reading!
