My name is Mia Gordon: I was sixteen years old, and I remember everything. Sometimes I still wake up shivering in the early hours of the morning, drowning in dreams of being out there in the ocean that summer, of looking up at the moon and feeling as invisible and free as a fish. But I'm jumping ahead, and to tell the story right I have to go back to the very beginning. To a place called Indigo Beach. To a boy with pale skin that glowed against the dark waves. To the start of something neither of us could have predicted, and which would mark us forever, making everything that came after and before seem like it belonged to another life. Praise for Summer of Skinny Dipping: "A deep, realistic exploration into first love and, yes, even loss." - RT Book Reviews "I'm stunned by Howells' deftly written coming-of-age tale. There are many YA novels in which the main character spends the summer in the Hamptons, or some similar summer destination, and learns startling truths about herself and the sparkling world that she once thought was so perfect, but I don't think I've enjoyed any as much as Howells' portrayal." - The Hiding Spot "The Summer of Skinny Dipping is a novel that is perfect for the beach if you want that "fun summer romance" book, but the depth and realism make it so much more." - Bookmac |
