As I continue to read The Summer of Skinny Dipping I still find it a very interesting novel. In the second part of my reading Mia has realized how much her favorite cousin Corinne has changed. She is very uptight and snotty and only cares about her appearance and money. Mias family isn’t as rich as Corrine’s family so she doesn’t have the expensive clothes like Corinne.
Mia finds it awkward talking to Corrine now because she is so much different than her. Even worst news hits Mia when Corrine tells her that she is having her friend Gen stay with her for the summer too. When Mia meets Gen she is just like Corrine and Mia feels ignored by the two of them. When Gen and Corrine throw a party while their parents are out for the night Mia also realizes her cousin is now smoking, doing drugs, and drinking. This makes Mia not even want to hang out around Corrine and her friends. During the party Mia leaves and walks on the beach where she runs into the boy who lives next door named Simon. Simon seems to be more like Mia and she’s excited to see how close they will get throughout the summer.
