Story
Remy always knows the perfect time to give a boyfriend "The Speech" telling him it's over - after the initial romantic whirl, but before the reality of an actual relationship hits. Her friends tease that her boyfriend tally is nearing the triple digit mark, but she's a girl who knows just how to avoid any messy emotional entanglement. After all, she's had the example of her five-times-married mother to show her what not to do.So what, then, is it about Dexter that makes it so hard for her to follow her own rules?

Belly measures her life in summers. Everything good, everything magical happens between the months of June and August. Winters are simply a time to count the weeks until the next summer, a place away from the beach house, away from Susannah, and most importantly, away from Jeremiah and Conrad.

Great book, bad performer
This book was one of my favorites as a teenager and I was so excited to find it on here, but this narrator was so so difficult to listen to. I found the tone and inflections of her voice very irritating and her vocal choices made Macy into WAY more of a brat than I had ever read her as. This is an unfortunate example of a narrator detracting from an otherwise wonderful story.

The story kept me going.
I had a little trouble with the reader at first but, as usual, Ms Dessen drew me in immediately so I soldiered on listening. Very quickly afterward, I fell into things & found I was quite mistaken about Ms Soler. She was excellent!! I find that each time I read/listen to a Dessen work, I find it gets better & better. I pick up on more nuance & realize the fabric of the Dessen universe is more intricate than I originally thought. I enjoy the cross overs from the various books (but would LOVE to learn what caused Jason to go from the self involved asshole he is here to the insightful, empathic dropout be becomes in "What Happened...."). Well worth a peek!

I love Sarah Dessen and was so happy to find this new recording of my favorite book of hers. I love the characters, the story, and the themes. Rebecca Soler was fabulous and was able to portray Macy as I always saw her when I was younger. Absolutely fantastic. Will recommend whole-heartedly.
