More DescriptionShe'd planned her entire school vacation in the early days of spring, but the summer of 1979 doesn't turn out to be what 12 year old Annie expected at all: her best friend is away at camp, Connor Bartlett barely notices her anymore, and her family, trying to protect her from the reality of her grandmother's illness, only seem to further isolate her.Struggling to navigate the crossroads of young adulthood, Annie turns to an unlikely confidant: a reclusive young veteran at war with his own past.As the summer days pass and her 13th birthday edges closer, Annie discovers that growing up has little to do with age and everything to do with letting go and moving on.
