A kid walks into your bookstore and says to you, Guess what? I'm your son. The one you put up for adoption seventeen years ago. The one you never told anyone about. Surprise! His name is Matthew Walker, and he's come to spend the summer on the Cape with his parents. Why? Well, he wants to meet you before he heads off to college in the fall. Tiny detail—he didn't tell his adoptive parents about his plan. And while you hoped this day would come someday, you're so stunned, you actually faint.

Publisher's summary
In the tradition of Judy Blume’s Summer Sisters, The Summer List is a tender yet tantalizing novel about two friends, the summer night they fell apart, and the scavenger hunt that reunites them decades later - until the clues expose a breathtaking secret that just might shatter them once and for all.
Laura and Casey were once inseparable: as they floated on their backs in the sunlit lake, as they dreamed about the future under starry skies, and as they teamed up for the wild scavenger hunts in their small California lakeside town. Until one summer night, when a shocking betrayal sent Laura running through the pines, down the dock, and into a new life, leaving Casey and a first love in her wake.
But the past is impossible to escape, and now, after 17 years away, Laura is pulled home and into a reunion with Casey she can’t resist - one last scavenger hunt. With a twist: this time, the list of clues leads to the settings of their most cherished summer memories. From glistening Jade Cove to the vintage skating rink, each step they take becomes a bittersweet reminder of the friendship they once shared. But just as the game brings Laura and Casey back together, the clues unravel a stunning secret that threatens to tear them apart....
Mesmerizing and unforgettable, Amy Mason Doan’s The Summer List is about losing and recapturing the person who understands you best - and the unbreakable bonds of girlhood.

A little slow at times
I really liked the story; although, it was a little slow at times. It made it a bit difficult to continue. But, it definitely got better as it went. I’m glad I finished it and really liked it overall.
The narrator had a chapter where she used the “wrong voices” for the characters that she had already established. She accidentally swapped them. I had to listen to that part several times to understand who was saying what. Most of the time, the voices were distinguishable, but definite moments where it slipped. It happened throughout.

Geography confused me
As someone who was raised in the general geographical location of the setting, it was clear the author didn’t properly research the local areas. Right off the bat, the character asks if her friend took the 5 to lakeshore drive. Not a thing. Also, the distance between the fictitious town and other real places doesn’t make sense. One can’t drive a short distance to truckee and Tahoe city and also drive a short distance to pinecrest. The distance from truckee to pinecrest is 4 hours by car. These inaccuracies are narrated several times throughout the novel making it very unbelievable.

The Summer List
Struggling to continue listening to it.
Narrator is fine. The book just hasn't really got me interested.

It finally clicked!
The narrator was wonderful! The laughing spots. The dramatic spots. Alexandra's voice. Thoroughly enjoyed listening to the narrator read this beautiful story of friendship.

Kept me enthralled
The story was interesting and believable and unpredictable, which I enjoyed. Plus, I love Kate Rudd as a narrator.

Wonderful summer listen!
Such a wonderful story that slowly unfolds its layers. A definite recommend. Both narrators were very talented and drew you into the story.
