Waiting on Wednesday (44)



"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted at Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating. This week I'm waiting on 

Five Summers by Una LaMarche

Five SummersFour 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

Will be published on: May 16th, 2013 (Razorbill)

I loved The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants and Five Summers sounds a bit like that series and that's exactly the reason why I can't wait to read this story! Friends, secrets and summer: the perfect combination!

What are you waiting on?

  3. I love books about a group of friends, especially one set in the summer. I was a fan of the Sisterhood, too, and do think this sounds similar. Great pick!
