This year, though, it’s going to be different. And it’s where he fell for Hudson Aaronson-Lim-who’s only into straight-acting guys and barely knows not-at-all-straight-acting Randy even exists. It’s where he takes to the stage in the big musical. Sixteen-year-old Randy Kapplehoff loves spending the summer at Camp Outland, a camp for queer teens. (Embarrassing story: One summer I was madly in love with a boy named Lewis with Kool-Aid red hair, but unlike Randy, I was too much of a scaredy-cat to even speak to him.) As someone who attended overnight camp for 10+ summers, I know all about summer crushes and spent much time gossiping in leafy hideaways about the hottest new camp romances. I know I just said the best summer reads take place by the water, but I lied. As the tide changes, Cor finds herself distracted and struggling with her priorities.Ĭan she follow her heart and keep her promise to the whales and her best friend? But she knows whatever she has with Mannix might not last, and that her focus should be on rescuing the humpback whales from entanglement. But when tragedy strikes, Cor is left to complete the list of things they wanted to accomplish before college alone, including a marine biology internship on Cape Cod.Ĭor’s summer of healing and new beginnings turns complicated when she meets Mannix, a local lifeguard who completely takes her breath away. Saving the whales has been Coriander Cabot and her best friend Ella’s dream since elementary school.
Why do all the best summer tales take place by the sea? Because ocean = sunshine, salty breezes, and sand between your toes, that’s why! While The Edge of Summer might not include the typical love triangle we all pine after, it does feature the complex challenge of balancing friendship, promises, and new love.
