The Summer of Skinny Dipping (Summer #1) 
Sometimes I wake up shivering in the early hours of the morning, drowning in dreams of being out there in the ocean that summer, of looking up at the moon and feeling as invisible and free as a fish. But I'm jumping ahead, and to tell the story right I have to go back to the beginning. To a place called Indigo Beach. To a boy with pale skin that glowed against the dark waves. To the start of something neither of us could have predicted, and which would mark us forever, making everything that came after and before seem like it belonged to another life.
My name is Mia Gordon: I was sixteen years old, and I remember everything
***SPOILERS****Lets start with the very intreging begginning, I liked the whole consept of the story. A niave girl sets of for a summer of fun with a great cousin. The first few chapters were hard to get into. I found myself reading one chapter a night - and that meant I was totally uniterested. I wanted a book that kept me reading at school, under the table. Reading at dinner and god forbid, reading on the toilet. Mia's character was someone I could relate too, very behind the scenes, not
Read my full review.Bottom Line a book that changed the way I look at the world, that's for sure! The Summer of Skinny Dipping is one I will be recommending over and over again to every teen I know. It's got it all, relate-able characters, a story line that keeps you turning pages until the very last chapter, and a beautiful love story, that's rich as well as heartbreaking. Beautiful, in each and every way. I give The Summer of Skinny Dipping a 5++ Mushrooms and I can't wait to have my very

For anyone ages 9-16, "The Summer Of Skinny Dipping" is a perfect preface to their summer vacation. Seriously, start this book with about two weeks left in school and follow the very sound protagonist (Mia Gordon) as she struggles to understand her relationship to her cousin and best friend as it, and they, move from childhood into young adulthood, as she works out her feelings about herself, her body, her family, her fervent effort at shaping her own identity, and as she traces her experiences
When I sat down to read this book I wasn't in my best of moods. I was in that place where I'm tired yet restless and felt that the only cure would be to read and I am grateful I did.... Amanda had me enraptured by her writing....losing myself amongst her words in a story that is sure to mend a few broken hearts with hope and a few souls with passion to be who you are and not what others wish you to be!!! Pure brilliance.I don't think there are many times I have allowed a book to keep me awake
I bought this book after seeing it on sale in the Nook section and I saw that it had a lot of good reviews so I decided to purchase it and give it a chance. I honestly couldn't be more pleased with it! Mia and her family go to their family's vacation home for the summer. She's excited to see her cousin because they hadn't seen eachother in 3 years and they were pretty much like p.b. and j until just recently. She started noticing that her cousins emails, text and phone calls seemed shorter as
