Book reaction #1

                For my independent reading book I chose to read The Summer of Skinny Dipping by Amanda Howells.  So far I have found this book easy to read and very interesting.   The main character in this novel is Mia. Mia is a teenage girl who lives with her mom, dad, and little sister Eva in Georgia.  Mia and her family are going away for the summer to visit their family in the South Hamptons at their beach house.
                Mia is so excited to spend the summer on the beach with her cousin she hasn’t seen in years. On the last day of school before she leaves her boyfriend who she thinks she loves broke up with her. This leaves Mia heartbroken and even more excited to see her cousin to talk to her and help her forget about her brake up. When the family pulls up to the beach house Mia runs out to see Corinne, but Corinne responds very differently. Mia has realized Corinne has changed so much since the last time she saw her and that the perfect summer she thought she was going to have she is now having second thoughts about.
