About this author
Two Amazon Vine Voice reviewers, Judy Lesley and Terry Sunday, have posted their reviews on Amazon at http://www.amazon.com/The-Summer-Set-ebook/dp/B005R99FGO/ in the last week. Both reviewers were very dubious at the outset and did not feel they would enjoy the young adult genre, but they graciously accepted the challenge. I hope you will take time to read the reviews!

"John McPhee is a great writer. Thoughtful and precise in his word choice, he possesses a dry sense of humor and keen powers of observations. This book is really a sharply drawn sketch book of character and landscape studies. It amuses and delights me...more

The Summer Set is a young adult novel with a fairly good story. While I think this is more intended for a young male audience (there's a lot of baseball stuff in here!), the intrigue about magic and the Noqumiut is enough to pull in readers of all...

The book started off a bit slow, but I kept reading and was glad I did. Really think for a YA, this would be a great read!

I wasn't sure if I would like this book or not. I won it but I didn't realize it was a YA book. I did enjoy it and was so glad that I was a winner because I would have missed a great read. It pulled me in and I couldn't stop reading it.
