In It's Not Summer
Without You, is told in the perspective of Belly at the age of 16, most of the
time. It switches through different ages of her life in some chapters, so some
chapters are not as reliable as others. When she was 10 she kept talking about
the bad side of one girl because Conrad was practically drooling over her while
Belly is in love with him. She did not talk about the good about the girl.
Belly is more reliable in her 14-16 years because people who are older tend to
be more believable, that is why I believe that Susannah would have another
interesting perspective of the story.
Susannah is Belly's
mothers' best friend. She would have a major twist in the story because first
of all she has cancer. She would talk about the challenges of it and how her
kids would react to the news. Next she would talk about which boy is for Belly.
She swore that Belly will marry one of her boys. She would also be more
truthful of situations.,
I read this book too! I agree, sometimes Belly isn't very reliable.
