Summer is not a bad book. It is a beautiful book, in my opinion, because the symbolism of the summer awakening is like Charity herself awakening. Lucius was weak but he is not a failure as a written character. His weakness is a very typical thing in some people and Charity was very mature to realize this and let him go. But how Charity could marry Mr. Royal is beyond me.<br>Still, I enjoyed the book. It spoke to me the sad truth of life for so many of us.... Sometimes we must settle and let our dreams go.
