 “But just because you bury something, that doesn’t mean it stops existing.” (245)

This quote is trying to tell us the deeper u bury a secret, a memory, a love one, anything at all, they'll always be there with you, even if you don't know.In the story We'll Always Have Summer, by Jenny Han, a teenage girl named Isabel "Belly" Conklin spends  her summer at a residence known as Cousin's Beach, with her mother and older brother, Steven, along with her mother's lifelong best friend, Susannah, and her sons, Conrad and Jeremiah. Belly has always been in love with Conrad but he hides his feelings for her, and Belly ends up with his younger brother claiming to have forgotten about Conrad. Later in the series Belly and Jeremiah are about to get married and then Conrad confesses his feelings for her the day before the big day! Now Belly has to choose between the brother she truly loves, but she is afraid of breaking the other one's heart.   Teenagers can relate to Bellys Obstacles in life. Whenever she thinks everything is going to be okay. Her world starts to crumble again.

To begin with, Belly has to deal with Susanna's death. Susannah was a close family friend that everyone loved. She died of cancer and everyone one was heart broken. Even though, she wasn't Susannah's daughter, Susannah treated her like she was. Like Belly was her daughter she always wanted but never had. She bought everything for her, always listened to Belly's stories, and Belly always ran to her first. Before her own mother. In the first book, The summer I turned pretty, “   “.

Aforesaid Belly is about to marry Jeremiah. Everybody hates the idea of this. Especially her mom. One would think that Conrad also would be resentful just as same as her mother. Since he’s in love with her too. But, to my surprise and yours, Conrad actually persuaded Belly's mother to come to the Wedding. This got me thinking that maybe Conrad doesn't feel any affection to Belly liked we thought. But he did because at the last second, the day after the wedding he had told her, “I see you again and everything I planned goes to shit. It's impossible... I love Jere more than anybody. He's my brother, my family. I hate myself for doing this. But when I see you two together, I hate him too... Don't marry him. Don't be with him. Be with me.” Knowing Conrad, the one she always liked also liked her back. Should she choose him or forever be with Jeremiah?

Teenagers can relate to Bellys Obstacles in life. Never give up on love. You’ll always remember your first love even if you don't want to,
