"The Lilith Summer," a novel by Hadley Irwin, was a wonderful book filled with valuable lessons, metaphors and similes. It is a book filled with joy, sadness, surprise, and anger. The book is about a developing and loving friendship between a young girl and an older woman, and how they learn lessons and valuable information from each other. It also explains love, how people leave, and what you must do to deal with it. This book taught me a lot about life and love and I thouroughly enjoyed it, and this book will be read by generations to come.

I read this book as a young girl because my Uncle is a friend of the authors. I am now 30 years old. I chose to reread this as an adult because it touched me so deeply when I was young. I was equally, if not more, touched the second time around. I recommend this for young people and hope that they take away as much from the book as I have.

The Lilith Summer is a very good book. It is hard for me to understand how anyone could dislike it. This wonderfully written novel really touched my soul. Hadley Irwin used excellent use of figurative language. It was ingenious how Irwin could make two very different lives touch.

I think that the Lilith Summer was a great book to read in a group and discuss questions. My class read it and thought that it had great metaphors and similes, but it could be confusing at points. Lilith and Ellen make a everlasting relationship with fun, sadness, and adventure. Rings stolen, secerts spoiled, even tragety. Hadley Irwin put on a a Class A kind of book.

"The Lilith Summer" is a great book if you understand it. There is a lot of figurative language in it. It teaches important lessons in life.

This was a very bad book. It had no real point. The end was very predictable. Hadley Irwin wasted her time. The characters were hard to understand. It just seemed to drone on and on and on. As I probably am now. Whatever the opposite of accolade is, I can't give this book enough.
