My psychic book senses went off when I started reading this novel & by the end I could say, "You're right again, this is going to be a huge hit." It is just that good. @CarleyFortune wrote a moving, sexy beach read that will BRING YOU BACK to youth https://www.today.com/popculture/every-summer-after-carley-fortune-excerpt-interview-t254168

@lemonsand it HAS to be in there on purpose. ayn rand books are tethered to such a philosophy; i bet she wanted us to associate the mom with that kind of unapologetic selfishness
