A review by bonniereads777
The Best Summer of Our Lives by Rachel Hauck
5.0
Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Snow--the Four Seasons--are headed off to be camp counselors during the summer of 77, a summer that will change their lives forever. Hidden anger, wreckless choices, and long-kept secrets combine to try and tear the four apart. Twenty years later, in 1997, Summer is a struggling singer, still trying to make it big in music. She makes commitments to no one, especially Spring, Autumn, and Snow, who she left behind years ago.
This is a wonderful coming-of-age story with explosive hidden secrets that will keep the reader riveted to the page. The characters are easy to connect with, and The Four Seasons are a special group. All of the relationships in this book are complex and nuanced, and the author brings in real life tragic events--the murder of three girls at Camp Scott, Oklahoma, in 1977, and the Ted Bundy murders at Florida State in 1978.
With a compelling plot and memorable characters, this story will touch your heart.
