Sarah Dessen- That Summer
Page# 155-198

This is my last reading of this book! Haven was starting to get really stressed out because her sisters wedding was in three days! She went into work at the kids shoe store, and it was a summer sidewalk sale so there was really low prices on shoes and they were all just thrown into boxes. One lady got very angry because she thought one of the prices were still way too high. The lady was a real jerk, and threw the shoe at Haven. Haven got so angry that she ran after the lady and threw the shoe right back at her and hit her right in the head. She didnt know what to do so she just took off runing out of the mall. She stayed at a playground in the neighborhood and then went home. Her boss must have called her mom becauase her mom asked her what had happened. She just said she didnt want to talk about it. She woke up and it was on e day before the wedding and Ashley had a talk with her about her attitude and being selfish, Haven got very defensive and just left the house. She was walking when she heard Sumners car, he was going to the nursing home. She went there and they danced together for the last song. Sumner said that he needed to take her home but she didnt want to go. She was very emoational and he insisted on taking her home. She refused and got out of the car and ran as it was thunderstorming. She ran and ran and got lost off of the path. Finally, she heard Ashley yelling her name. They were so angry at eachother and Ashley finally came out and told her that Sumner had cheated on her with another girl and broke her heart. They all just went to bed with out talking and at the wedding the next day as Ashley was walking down the isle Haven began to cry, Ashley just hugged her and cried also. And that was the end.
I was greatly dissappointed with this book. I thought it was going to end much diferently. I thought that Sumner and Haven would end up together and I never expected Sumner to have cheated on Ashley!
until next time....
