From Goodreads:

Things in Delilah Hannaford's life have a tendency to fall apart. She used to be a good student, but she can't seem to keep it together anymore. Her "boyfriend" isn't much of a boyfriend. And her mother refuses to discuss the fight that divided their family eight years ago. Falling apart, it seems, is a Hannaford tradition.

Over a summer of new friendships, unexpected romance, and moments that test the complex bonds between mothers and daughters, Delilah must face her family's painful past. Can even her most shattered relationships be pieced together again?

Rich with emotion, Sarah Ockler delivers a powerful story of family, love, and self-discovery.

My thoughts:

Sarah Ockler is the author of Twenty Boy Summer. If you've read Twenty Boy Summer, then I don't really need to say anything else. This is the exact reason I put it on my to-read list, back before there was a cover or even a description and the title was Fixing Delilah Hannaford. Now that it has a snazzy cover and an official blurb, I'm even more excited about its upcoming release. Oh, December, can't you get here any faster?
