From Publishers Weekly

As her parents divorce and her sister gets married, teenage Haven finds herself out of place. PW noted in a starred review, "Dessen's combination of unforgettable characters and unexpected events generates hilarity as well as warmth." Ages 10-14.
Copyright 1998 Reed Business Information, Inc. --Ce texte provient d'une édition qui n'est plus publiée ou qui est non diponible.

From School Library Journal

Grade 7-9?That Summer could refer to the current one through which 15-year-old Haven is suffering, or it could be the one a few years ago when everything seemed perfect. Nevertheless, both summers affect her and she is a different person at their conclusions. Dessen has cast her story with a group of forgettable characters who plod their way through a cliche-ridden coming-of-age novel with a lot of subplots. There is the long-suffering mother and her scatterbrained best friend. Then there is toupee-wearing Dad, who honks from the driveway on visitation nights. Add the boy-crazy best friend and the moody older sister who is planning her wedding and making everyone miserable. The most memorable character is Summer Lee, a remnant of that long ago season when everything was just right, who shows up at the precise moments he is needed and offers support to Haven. The setting is a suburb where all the houses look exactly the same (kind of like the characters). There is nothing seriously wrong with Haven's life, except that she doesn't fit in, physically or emotionally; she is six-feet tall and still growing. She is unwilling or unable to accept change in her life, and pines for the days when her parents seemed happy and she didn't fight with her sister and the sun always shone...Sigh. Still, Haven has a good sense of humor, and her insightful barbs about everything from shopping malls to TV-news readers add some depth to the story.?Lucinda Lockwood, Thomas Haney Secondary School, Maple Ridge, BC

2.0étoiles sur 5 Hm...a little disappointing, Jui 15 2003
Par "snowconemiss" (somewhere over the rainbow) - Voir tous mes commentaires
This review is from: That Summer (Paperback)
though i am a fan of dessen, this book really disappointed me. i read this right after 'someone like you' and it doesn't even compare. in this book, haven's character is poorly developed. you never really get to know anything about her besides that she gets angry at the world. dessen's usual strong maincharacters did not appear in this book as we learn that haven acts as a doormat for most of her life, going along with things she doesn't believe in without a peep. when i read other people's 5 star reviews of the book i am definetly surprised and wonder whether they were fully conscience while reading.

3.0étoiles sur 5 A look at the past and the present, Jui 10 2004
This review is from: That Summer (Paperback)
Dessen's novel, THAT SUMMER, is most likely referring not to the summer 15 year-old Haven is now in the middle of, but a summer that has already passed her by and now remains a fond memory. That summer, the one she fondly reminisces of, was filled with the happy sort of memories that make the present seem bland and melancholy in comparison. Her sister, Ashley, was dating Sumner Lee, a ruggedly handsome boy who has held a special place in Haven's heart, even though their relationship has long been over with. When Haven begins seeing him around the neighborhood and at the mall, however, old, happy memories come to mind. Now, Ashley is a bride-to-be. Her groom, Lewis, is boring and not the brother-in-law Haven wants.

The summer that past also was a time when she, Ashley, her mother, and her father were a happy family, a family that was sticking together and had a seemingly bright future ahead.

Too bad things didn't stay that way.

As Haven's present summer goes on, she finds out why Ashley and Sumner split. She deals with her father's marriage to The Weather Pet, the young, blonde bombshell who is replacing her mother. And she also comes to the realization that people aren't always who you think and want them to be. Ashley's relationship with Lewis makes her feel secure because she knows he'll never hurt her. Haven's ways of dealing with the unpleasant is focusing on the past.

Although this is not a favorite of mine, Dessen is one of my favorite authors. I have yet to dislike any of her books. Haven, the protagonist, no longer lives in a perfect world. As she deals with the awkwardness of puberty, along with other awakenings, readers come to understand that more and more. What Dessen does successfully is create a likeable and believable character who many will be able to relate with, making this YA novel a worthwhile and enjoyable read, despite lacking the sparkle found in DREAMLAND and THIS LULLABY.
