What I Learned That Summer Brandi Easterling Collins

Lesson One: Shut up long enough to listen.
At almost sixteen, aspiring writer Kincaid Walsh isn't thrilled about spending the whole summer with her grandparents and aunt at their small motel in Arkansas.
Away from her friends, Kincaid agrees to her grandfather's challenge to write down every lesson she learns during her time there. As Kincaid struggles to heal from her painful past, she learns more than she ever imagined when she meets one of her writing idols.
When they're forced to work together, Kincaid is annoyed by Joseph, the teenage maintenance guy, but she soon realizes he's hiding heartache of his own.
What other lessons will her summer hold?
Only time will tell.
