about the book
Freshman year is over. Summer is here. Jill and Hillary
aren't fighting anymore, Lorylyn is back with Brady and
happier than ever, and Jill has her new best friends
Hilton and Todd too - Hilton, whom she endlessly
admires and wants to be more like, and Todd, with
whom she's crazily in love. After a somewhat
rollercoaster year, things are looking pretty great. And
on the last day of school, Hilton tells Jill an outrageous,
stunning secret about her relationship with Reed, then at
Landon's party that night, Jill gets to kiss Todd in spin
the bottle. And just like that, the tone for the summer is
set.
Sunny days on a sparkling blue lake...an overnight stay
in a hotel with the boys...trips to Cedar Point, the
Bahamas, and California...the thrill of romance in the
air...sneaking out late at night...one girl's "first time"...wild
nights at Landon's. The lingering high off all of it.
Giggling, excitement, stories, inside jokes. Anticipation of
what's to come. For Jill, Hilton, Lorylyn, and Hillary, it's
their dream summer. Everything is picture-perfect;
nothing can go wrong.
But for some of the girls, what's to come is nothing they
would have wanted to anticipate. For things haven't
been as perfect as they've seemed. It's just that the girls
have ignored the signs. Signs they could have seen all
along, had they been willing to look. But desperate to
believe in the glimmering illusions of summer, they close
their eyes to what they don't want to see, what they don't
want to believe. To the ominous gut instinct that
everything is just a little too perfect, a little too good to
be true. To the foreboding premonition that it won't last,
that control is somehow slipping away. Because
everything that seems too good to be true...probably is.

spin the bottle (the poem)
part 2
summers of sun, cedar point
laying out, more parties at the lake
best friends with the boys of their dreams
charming boys who said all the right things
i had that gut instinct all along
told me it was all too good to last
but i ignored it and
fell harder and harder instead...
