YA Buddy Readers' Corner ♥ discussion

BEFORE: It was the perfect summer of first kisses, skinny-dipping, and bonfires by the lake. Joy, Tali, Luce, and Zoe knew their final summer at Camp Okahatchee would come to an end, but they swore they’d stay friends.

AFTER: Now, two years later, their bond has faded along with those memories.

THEN: That is, until the fateful flash of a photo booth camera transports the four of them back in time, to the summer they were fifteen—the summer everything changed.

NOW: The girls must recreate the past in order to return to the present. As they live through their second-chance summer, the mystery behind their lost friendship unravels, and a dark secret threatens to tear the girls apart all over again.

ALWAYS: Summers end. But this one will change them forever.

I'll try and join this one. :)

Oh, I didn't expect this to be in third person point of view!

Chapter 1:
(view spoiler)[ I don't get the connection between Joy's message and Zoe dumping her boyfriend. (hide spoiler)]

(view spoiler)[ Hehe. It's like a Disney movie. (hide spoiler)]

Chapter 8:
(view spoiler)[ The way Zoe describes Joy, it's like she's in love with her or something. Is it just me? (hide spoiler)]

Finished chapter 7 (view spoiler)[


I don't get it either. Cal seems like such a great guy, I was really disappointed when Zoe dumped him.

I'm curious to see why they traveled back in time, if instead of it being for them to recreate things exactly as they happened they are supposed to try and change things. Maybe they'll be able to stop some of the bad things that're happening currently in their lives.

I personally loved all the references to Doctor Who - that just made me smile :)

What is Joy hiding? For some reason I keep thinking she has an illness, such as cancer, and that's the reason she's is so different when they first met again. Or, maybe someone dear to her is sick or dying? (hide spoiler)]

@Megan:
(view spoiler)[ I'm also very curious about what Joy is hiding. Tali seems to be hiding something regarding Blake too. Hmm.. (hide spoiler)]

I feel like Tali's might be hiding that she and Blake never actually did anything...maybe she stole what she showed the girls from his room or something? (hide spoiler)]
