Sinossi
Rose e i suoi genitori vanno ad Awago Beach da quando lei era bambina. È la sua fuga estiva, il suo rifugio. A farle compagnia, c'è anche Windy, l'amica di sempre, la sorellina che non ha mai avuto. Ma questa estate è diversa. La mamma e il papà di Rose non fanno altro che litigare, e Rose e Windy si trovano a essere testimoni di una piccola tragedia in pieno svolgimento nella comunità di Awago Beach. È un'estate di segreti e batticuori, ed è un bene che le due amiche possano fidarsi ciecamente una dell'altra.

Recensioni
I rarely write GR reviews, but I almost didn't pick this up because of some of the reviews I've seen, so I wanted to add my five stars. This is a quiet book. Much of the action is observed rather than experienced by the protagonists, but the impact it has on them is deeply felt. If you're looking fo Leggi tutto
The huge bummer of the graphic novel is that someone labors for ages over their creation and then you sit down with your pint of Chubby Hubby and make mincemeat of the both of them within the hour.

6/22/21: Reread with summer class on YA Comics and Graphic Novels with Kick-ass Main Characters, and loved it again, and the class--those that have finished it, ahem--say they love it. A coming of age story that focuses on ONE summer and on girls and women and their relationships with (in the focus
Artwork: 5 stars Plot: 2 stars The artwork was STUNNING in this book but that's where my love ends. I felt this could have told a bigger story and made a bigger impact but it felt very open ended honestly. I did resonate with the mother so very much ( you'll know once you read the book) But I wanted mo Leggi tutto

Rosie's friend Windy is always there, too, like the little sister she never had. But this summer is different. This One Summer felt like a great summer read. And even t Leggi tutto
