I finished this back in March but didn't have time to write about it because of school.
I checked this out way back then, but I don't remember if I pulled it or if Darrell recommended it.
I must be magnetically attracted to books about tragedy, so of course this one is tragic as well. And so are the next two. It must be a disease.
This one has no happy ending, unfortunately. But it is a good book nonetheless. I read this over a month ago, and while I don't rememeber all the details, I remember I don't really want to reread the tragedy. So my synopsis might be a little dry.
Short synopsis:
Jude starts his summer with a new not so glamerous job, but is dertermined to make new friends, and hopefully continue to put his past behind him. Eight??? (I can't remember exactly how many) years before he lost his little sister to a tragic accident. Since then his barely kept together family, has been trying not to fall apart. It's an event that continually haunts Jude, so he hopes that this summer will liven up his life a litte bit. He meets a girl, and hopes that maybe his luck and his life are finally looking up. (Of course this can't be accurate, I don't read happily ever after books!!!) Then tragically, you have to read the book. Because I haven't given any endings away yet, I don't want to spoil it for anyone.
