L'été où Élodie

The oppressive heat seemed to mirror the rising conflicts and secrets. Did the weather make anyone else feel more immersed in the story's mood?

The intense weather conditions really heightened the stakes. I wonder if the author planned this contrast from the start or if it developed during writing.

The characters' secrets kept me guessing, and I was never quite sure who was reliable. Did others find this ambiguity more frustrating or engaging?
