The Summer I Found You by Jolene Perry
I was stuck on this book after the first couple pages. This was an amazing book with such diverse issues.
Kate Walker is a normal crazy female teen that has her own little quirks like most teens. After her passing out in school and being taken away in an ambulance things got real. She woke up in the hospital to found out she has diabetes. That in its self changes life for her period.
Aidan Connelly is the 19yr old cousin of Kate's best friend Jen. Aidan is an Army Veteran that was hurt in Afghanistan that left him losing his right arm. Aidan was going to be a lifer in the Army but things are now changed forever. He is now living with his cousins, aunt and uncle until he can get back on his feet.
After Kate's boyfriend Shelton breaks up with her, Jen tries everything to cheer her up but it seems nothing will work. There's a party coming up so, Jen invited Aidan to come out with her, her boyfriend and Kate.
I really loved this book. Kate is your normal teenager and the way she handles the sudden news of her having diabetes is so normal and reminds me of myself. When anyone finds this out you either deny it or try to fix it but at that age oh my gosh that has got to be rough.
I enjoyed reading how Aidan is so conflicted and everything is far from his mind except the incident that caused him to lose his arm.
This story is of love, loss, angst, teen hormones and life changing events. I encourage anyone 16yrs old or older to read this due to the language. It was such a great book and five stars have been granted :)
