"Five summers to fall in love. One moment to fall apart. A weekend to get it right. A magazine writer has to make a choice when she returns to the lake she grew up on, and to the man she thought she'd never have to live without, in this achingly nostalgic debut. They say you can never go home again, and for Persephone Fraser that has felt too true for the last decade, ever since she made the biggest mistake of her life. Instead of glittering summers on the lakeshore of her childhood, she spends them in a stylish apartment in the city, going out with friends, and keeping everyone a safe distance from her heart. Until the day she gets a call that sends her racing back to Barry's Bay and into the orbit of Sam Florek. For five summers, through hazy afternoons on the water and warm summer nights working in his family restaurant and curling up together with books-medical textbooks for him and work-in-progress horror short stories for her-Percy and Sam had been inseparable. And slowly that friendship turned into something breathtakingly more, before it fell spectacularly apart. When Percy returns to the lake to attend Sam's mother's funeral, their connection is as undeniable as it had always been. Percy must confront the decisions she's made and the years she's spent punishing herself for them, in order to determine, once and for all, whether their love might be bigger than the biggest mistakes of their past. Told over the course of five years and one weekend, Every Summer After is a big, sweeping look at love and the people and choices that mark us forever"-- Provided by publisher.

Tugs at the Heartstrings submitted by 17661 on July 5, 2022, 1:12pm After seeing this book every five seconds on social media, I decided to see for myself what all the hype was about. Let me tell you- it did not disappoint. I really enjoyed the alternating timelines between the past and the present and watching Sam and Percy grow up together. You could feel throughout the book that they had such a strong and special bond. Also, the author of this book is a career novel editor and that definitely shows in her mastery of storytelling. No spoilies: the big reveal comes pretty close to the end of the book and I wish there had been a bit more exploration of it, because it was a big thing. However, I still thoroughly enjoyed this book and know I will be thinking about it for a long time to come.

Great for summer submitted by kmp009 on July 5, 2023, 7:57am A great summer read, I loved the alternating timelines that show the story unfolding in the past and the present. The characters really come alive as does the lake setting.

one day read submitted by akdilcher on July 6, 2023, 5:21pm This book kept me engaged all day! It was a page turner and I liked how each chapter had a time change. I definitely agree with the said age range of starting at 14.
