I was surprised I didn't cry, but I think that's because the book wasn't very long and I didn't get a chance to really feel that deeply for the characters. I found myself relate to Meg in many ways and I was glad to see that she has her photography to hold on to and create something that makes her feel like herself. There is a lot of emotions and powerful character sensitivity throughout this book. And the day Molly is rushed to the hospital, Meg has to accept that there is something terribly wrong with her sister. But Molly’s constant grouchiness, changing appearance, and other complaints are not just part of a new mood. Just as the sisters begin to adjust to their new home, Meg feels that Molly is starting up again by being a real nuisance. The two of them couldn’t be more different, and it’s hard for Meg to hide her resentment of Molly’s beauty and easy popularity. Meg isn’t thrilled when she gets stuck sharing a bedroom with her older sister Molly. A wonderful tale of love, tragedy and friendship. Lois Lowry’s first novel, A Summer to Die is brilliantly written and completely relatable. Brilliantly written and completely relatable
