Waiting On: Five Summers by Una LaMarche

Waiting on Wednesday is hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine and features upcoming releases.

Five Summers
by Una LaMarche
May 16, 2013
Four best friends, five summers of camp memories

The summer we were nine: Emma was branded “Skylar’s friend Emma” by the infamous Adam Loring . . .
The summer we were ten: Maddie realized she was too far into her lies to think about telling the truth . . .
The summer we were eleven: Johanna totally freaked out during her first game of Spin the Bottle . . .
The summer we were twelve: Skylar’s love letters from her boyfriend back home were exciting to all of us—except Skylar . . .
Our last summer together: Emma and Adam almost kissed. Jo found out Maddie’s secret. Skylar did something unthinkable . . . and whether we knew it then or not, five summers of friendship began to fall apart.

Three years after the fateful last night of camp, the four of us are coming back to camp for reunion weekend—and for a second chance.

Bittersweet, funny, and achingly honest, Five Summers is a story of friendship, love, and growing up that is perfect for fans of Anne Brashares and Judy Blume's Summer Sisters.

Summer camp, friendship drama, and repairing the past? I didn't realize it before I came across this book, but I think that I've been in need of this type of story for a while now. I'm definitely going to be picking up this one.

What about the rest of you? Which book(s) are you waiting on?

Review: Far From You by Lisa Schroeder

Title: Far From You Author: Lisa Schroeder Publisher: Simon & Schuster Children's Publication Date: December 23, 2008 Links: Amazon | Goodreads Source: Won Lost and alone...Down the rabbit hole. Alice thought she knew what solitude was: Her mother—gone. Her father—remarried with a newborn daughter. Now... Trapped in the icy embrace of a deadly snowstorm, Alice faces the true meaning of loneliness. But hope may not be as far away as she thinks.... Alice is an interesting character. She desperately clings to her memories of her mother as her newborn half-sister provides physical evidence that her father has moved on with his life. Alice says and does things that are selfish, angsty, and bratty. But she knows how she is acting. She realizes it is perhaps not the best reaction, but that she also has the right to be a bit immature about it, especially since her best friend is growing tiresome of Alice's mourning mood. At least Alice has her boyfriend. Their relationship i...
