About the book

A perfect summertime read for fans of John Green, Stephanie Perkins, and Sarah Dessen:

It was Sloane who yanked Emily out of her shell and made life 100% interesting. But right before what should have been the most epic summer, Sloane just…disappears. All she leaves behind is a to-do list.

On it, thirteen Sloane-inspired tasks that Emily would normally never try. But what if they could bring her best friend back?

Apple picking at night? Okay, easy enough.

Dance until dawn? Sure. Why not?

Kiss a stranger? Um... 

Emily now has this unexpected summer, and the help of Frank Porter (totally unexpected), to check things off Sloane's list.

Who knows what she’ll find?

    Nachdem "Amy on the summer road" und "Vergiss den Sommer nicht" beides 5 Sterne Bücher für mich waren, hatte ich große Erwartungen an dieses Buch. Leider wurde ich enttäuscht. Die Charaktere waren mir zu flach, Sloane war mir absolut unsympathisch. Es gab keine richtige Spannungskurve, sondern nur ein monotones Abarbeiten der Liste. Die Liebesgeschichte kam mir viel zu kurz und emotional berühren konnte mich das Buch auch nicht. Es war eine ganz gute Geschichte, die man lesen kann aber nicht muss. Sommerfeeling hat sie bei mir zumindest verbreitet. 3/5 Sterne.
