Ok,

That Summer by Sarah Dessen was her first published book.

I know this sounds picky but I don't like books with long paragraphs, I think they take much longer to read because you have to read so much more before you can stop. Now about the book.

The book was ok, it didn't really go anywhere or have much of a plot. To me it can be summed up pretty much like this; A girl's parents divorce, she looks for comfort in the past then learns that she can't live in the past. To me that what it pretty much was.
