"Like storm clouds banking over a glittering sea, this heady novel
by two-time National Book Award finalist Adele Griffin builds to a
dark, surprising climax."
--The Washington Post "An atmospheric and engaging piece of
historical fiction, this work will haunt and resonate with readers
long after it ends. An excellent selection for YA collections."
--School Library Journal, starred review
"This book beautifully captures that one summer of first love--the
excitement, the heartbreak, the way the world will never again look
the same. I devoured it in one heady, swoony sitting."
--Morgan Matson, New York Times bestselling author of The
Unexpected Everything "This is a glittery gem of a book. I was
utterly transported to Fire Island--to endless summer days, girls
in sundresses, that rush you get the first time you fall hard in
love. I fell so hard in love with this book."
--Jenny Han, New York Times Bestselling author of To All the Boys
I've Loved Before "Perfectly captures both the blinding brightness
of summer love and the encroaching darkness of two girls competing
for the same boy. I couldn't put this delicious book down."
--Siobhan Vivian, New York Times Bestselling author of The List
"Meticulous prose."
--Kirkus Reviews "As much sociology, and sometimes satire, as
romance, the story is a compelling one that will surely have
widespread appeal."
--Booklist
