Knihu This Summer Will Be Different od Carley Fortune (vyd. Aurora 2025) som ohodnotila 1*/5*, obálke dávam 3*/5*. Dej sa odohráva na Ostrove princa Eduarda, kde turistka Lucy a miestny Felix (mladší brat jej najlepšej kamarátky Bridget) prežijú vášnivé leto, ktoré sa snažia už nikdy nezopakovať. Recenzentka najviac ocenila atmosféru ostrova — pláže, majáky a miestnu kuchyňu — a prirovnala ju k Anne zo Zeleného domu, no zároveň kritizuje nedostatočný priestor pre rozvoj romantického vzťahu a slabšie vykreslené priateľstvo. Autorka používa striedanie súčasnosti a spomienok, čo pri čítaní s prestávkami pôsobilo mätúco, no napriek výhradám by si recenzentka Ostrov princa Eduarda rada raz osobne pozrela.
