How Hard Can Love Be? by Holly Bourne is the second installment in the critically acclaimed and fiercely funny Spinster Club series. The story follows Amber, who is dreading a summer spent in America visiting her estranged mother at a summer camp. While her friends Evie and Lottie are back home in England, Amber finds herself navigating the awkwardness of a mother she barely knows and the unexpected charm of Kyle, a local American boy who seems almost too good to be true.
Holly Bourne masterfully captures the intense highs and lows of being a teenager, blending sharp wit with profound emotional depth. While the setting of an American summer camp provides a classic backdrop for romance, the novel dives much deeper into complex themes such as emotional neglect, the reality of adult flaws, and the importance of female friendship. As a member of the Spinster Club, Amber tries to apply her feminist principles to her own life, even when her heart begins to get in the way of her head.
