[amazon 1416968296 inline] - The first book in the New York Times Bestselling series is a perfect summer read for girls grade 7–10. This romantic and heartbreakingly real, novel follows 15-year-old Belly through the most important summer of her life.
Every year, her family shares a beach house with Belly's mother's best friend, Susannah, and her two sons. Belly has always had a crush on Conrad, the older boy, but he has always treated her like an annoying younger sister. This summer, everything changes.
The beautifully written novel captures Belly's realization that she is changing into an attractive young woman with a growing power over the boys in her life. 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. They are the boys that Belly has known since her very first summer--they have been her brother figures, her crushes, and everything in between. But one summer, one terrible and wonderful summer, the more everything changes, the more it all ends up just the way it should have been all along.
