YA
Fifteen-year-old Summer Everett is rushing to catch her flight when her cell rings. Two parallel narratives follow: in one, she ignores it and has a romantic, self-actualizing summer in southern France; in the other, her dad's call cancels their plans and she has a romantic, self-actualizing summer at home in upstate New York. The sum is fairly predictable but appealing.
