It's Been a Long Time

since I've read a book by Ally Condie.  She wrote the Matched trilogy, the first of which I loved and then I had the feeling that maybe the publisher made her turn it into a trilogy, and so it was stretched a bit too much for me. But this is just a fantastic story.  So real.  Just very powerfully written.  A story of loss and trying to live again after that loss.  Summerlost is really, really well done.
