★ “A striking examination of love-of friends, of family, of self-as well as of grief. Perfect for fans of Morgan Matson, Jenny Han, and Jandy Nelson, this wondrous novel was proclaimed “a striking examination of love-of friends, of family, of self-as well as of grief” by ALA Booklist in a starred review. As Quinn lets herself open up again, she begins to understand the truth about love, loss, and monsters-real and imagined. But the new boy in town, Alexander, doesn’t see her as the monster she believes herself to be. Now it’s winter, the magic has drained from Quinn’s life, and she knows it’s her fault. A place where wild blueberries grew no matter the season, a legendary sea monster lurked in the waters, and Quinn fell in love with her best friend, Dylan. Last June, the summer camp Quinn’s family owns in Winship, Maine, was still a magical place. That shortlist includes Rainbow Rowell, Nicola Yoon, and now, Carlie Sorosiak."- Jeff Zentner, Morris Award-winning author of The Serpent King and Goodbye Days "It's the rarest author who can pull off laugh-out-loud hilarious, profound, and breathlessly romantic, all in the most sparkling prose.
