Every Summer After [L0010]

2022 - PB very nice condition. "A radiant debut."-Emily Henry, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Book Lovers THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER! Named One of the Hottest Reads of Summer 2022 by Today ∙ Parade ∙ PopSugar ∙ USA Today ∙ SheReads ∙ BuzzFeed ∙ BookBub ∙ Bustle ∙ and more! Six summers to fall in love. One moment to fall apart. A weekend to get it right. They say you can never go home again, and for Persephone Fraser, ever since she made the biggest mistake of her life a decade ago, that has felt too true. Instead of glittering summers on the lakeshore of her childhood, she spends them in a stylish apartment in the city, going out with friends, and keeping everyone a safe distance from her heart. Until she receives the call that sends her racing back to Barry's Bay and into the orbit of Sam Florek-the man she never thought she'd have to live without. When Percy returns to the lake for Sam's mother's funeral, their connection is as undeniable as it had always been. But until Percy can confront the decisions she made and the years she's spent punishing herself for them, they'll never know whether their love might be bigger than the biggest mistakes of their past. Every Summer After is a big, sweeping nostalgic story of love and the people and choices that mark us forever.

From recent Amazon/GoodReads reviews: "I couldn't fly through the pages fast enough, but at the same time I wanted to read as slowly as possible to savor every single word of this story. The characters were heartbreakingly relatable and to watch them grow into themselves and their relationships with each other was breathtaking. It had the right amount of tension, steam, and a bit of angst, all while balancing a story that would resonate with most readers."; "The writing style really immerses you in the story. It's the perfect summery, coming-of-age, young love novel in my opinion. Despite the flashbacks, it does not read like a YA novel. I love that the characters are distinguishable between their teenage and adult selves."; "What makes this book so special is Fortune's richly drawn characters and her lyrical writing style. The setting is so vividly described that I felt like I was right there with Percy and Sam, experiencing all the highs and lows of their relationship. The dialogue is realistic and often humorous, and the romance is swoon-worthy without being melodramatic."
