Waiting on Wednesday: Nantucket Blue






Nantucket Blue
Author: Leila Howland
Publisher: Disney Hyperion
Expected Publication: May 7, 2013

Synopsis:
For Cricket Thompson, a summer like this one will change everything. A summer spent on Nantucket with her best friend, Jules Clayton, and the indomitable Clayton family. A summer when she’ll make the almost unattainable Jay Logan hers. A summer to surpass all dreams. Some of this turns out to be true. Some of it doesn’t. When Jules and her family suffer a devastating tragedy that forces the girls apart, Jules becomes a stranger whom Cricket wonders whether she ever really knew. And instead of lying on the beach working on her caramel-colored tan, Cricket is making beds and cleaning bathrooms to support herself in paradise for the summer. But it’s the things Cricket hadn’t counted on--most of all, falling hard for someone who should be completely off-limits--that turn her dreams into an exhilarating, bittersweet reality. A beautiful future is within her grasp, and Cricket must find the grace to embrace it. If she does, her life could be the perfect shade of Nantucket blue.

My Thoughts:
No one was more surprised then me when I fell in love with contemporary novels last year. I am now on the hunt for my favorite contemporary stories of 2013 and Nantucket Blue definitely seems like something I will enjoy. Now I just have to wait for summer to get here!

    Wow -- I've never even heard of this one, but I love Cape Cod and I loved Jenny Han's Summer series, so I'll definitely give it a try!
