Description
"The Lake Never Tells stands out in the field of YA novels. Tully tells her story with clarity and confidence. The descriptions are quick and precise; her dialogue is memorable; and her characters' observations about class and their milieu feel both insightful but also true to their youthful ages. The pleasure in Tully's story comes from meeting her tender, damaged, funny trio of young heroes as they solve a summer mystery and discover each other's hearts."~ Publishers Weekly Booklife Prize "The author's move from romance to intrigue will keep young adults guessing until the unexpected conclusion. This approach crafts a riveting story that's more than a simple summer beach tale, but the engrossing saga of worlds colliding and extraordinary friendships forged from adversity and new dreams.xa0The Lake Never Tells 's unique blend of mystery, romance, and discovery is highly recommended for teens who want a story replete with relationship challenges and change."~ Diane Donovan, Midwest Book Review
