kateburstein31's review against another edition
4.0
This is a rather intense story that incorporates mystery and loss, reflection and growth, all told through the voice of a grown man looking back on the monumental summer he was 13. While the story was compelling, I gave this 4 vs 5 stars due to its overwhelming intensity…felt the author took on too much at times. This story showcases how minor, and often unintentional, incidents can have crucial implications for others.
