What People are Saying

  • A sexy, poignant, page-turning story told by a sweetly baffled young hero, perhaps the best kind of hero to narrate any tale.”

    ~ Jane Hamilton, author of the A New York Times bestseller A Map of the World.

  • "It is a testament to Maynard's skill that she makes this ominous setup into a convincing and poignant coming-of-age tale. As she has revealed in her memoirs and five previous novels, Maynard has had her own share of unsuitable attachments (including an intense pen pal relationship with a convicted murderer)."

    ~ The Washington Post

  • “Joyce Maynard is in top-notch form with Labor Day. Simply a novel you cannot miss.”

    ~ Jodi Picoult, New York Times bestselling author of My Sister’s Keeper and Keeping Faith
