Abby | 6 comments I'm trying to find this book, but I can't remember the title or author. I think it's from the early 2000's, maybe older. Young adult fiction. Set in New England, I think in Massachusetts, but I could be wrong. I'm pretty sure there's a boy wearing an apron on the cover, maybe a lobster. I remember that he worked in a restaurant and that the story was set in the summer.

Cheryl (cherylllr) Hm - interesting...
So, was working in the restaurant the focus, do you think, or was there more to the story, like a girlfriend, or family issues, etc.?


Abby | 6 comments I remember there was a girl working at the restaurant, too. He kind of developed a thing for her.

To be honest, I read the book several years ago in high school. I remember enjoying it, I just can't remember that much about it.

One thing I definitely remember was the boy talking about "lobstah men" which is what leads me to believe it was set in Massachusetts.
