“This is a great summer read. I read this book while I was just going back to school, and it was my little escape from the drawbacks of school. If you love Sarah Dessen and haven't read "That Summer" yet, hurry up and read it now! It's an out of the ordinary story about a 15 year old girl who desires to make her life just as perfect as it was that one summer.”

    “I really did like this book.
    Nothing insanely spectacular about it, but it was cute and interesting and made me think about certain things a little bit more.”
