The Summer List Lib/E

Description

In the tradition of Judy Blume's classic adult novel Summer Sisters and for fans of J. Courtney Sullivan, a tender yet tantalizing debut novel about two friends, the summer night they fell apart, and the scavenger hunt that reunites them decades later-until the clues expose a breathtaking secret that just might shatter them once and for all.

Laura and Casey were once inseparable: as they floated on their backs in the sunlit lake, as they dreamed about the future under starry skies, '; and as they teamed up for the wild scavenger hunts in their small lakeside California town. Until one summer night, when a shocking betrayal sent Laura running through the pines, down the dock, and into a new life, leaving Casey and a first love in her wake.

But the past is impossible to escape, and now, after seventeen years away, Laura is pulled home and into a reunion with Casey she can't resist-one last scavenger hunt. With a twist: this time, the list of clues leads to the settings of their most cherished summer memories. From glistening Jade Cove to the vintage skating rink, each step they take becomes a bittersweet reminder of the friendship they once shared. But just as the game brings Laura and Casey back together, the clues unravel a stunning secret that threatens to tear them apart...

Mesmerizing and unforgettable, Amy Mason Doan's The Summer List is about losing and recapturing the person who understands you best-and the unbreakable bonds of girlhood.
