Summerlost

Summerlost
By Ally Condie


Summerlost


Summerlost follows the story of a girl named Cedar who moves to a summer home the year after her father and brother are killed in a car accident.  Cedar's mother hopes the move will help heal them that after a devastating year.  Cedar finds a friend in a quirky boy named Leo, and they set off on a unique adventure that involves the mysterious death of an actress in town, working at the local Summerlost festival (think of the Renaissance Faire), and objects that show up on her window sill at night. 

This book is one of resilience and learning to go forward in life, while not forgetting the past.
