Their relationship has been all about Louisa giving him oral sex, and she isn’t feeling it. And then she learns that her uncle has hired King Nathan, her best friend from four years ago, who fled to his mother in Toronto after a big bust-up between them.īut right at the start, Lou breaks up with her boyfriend. This summer, Lou is working with her best friend and boyfriend at the ice cream shack. Bits at the start of each chapter talk about the ice cream and the flavors and colors and how to create them, and oh my goodness, it made me want some ice cream, preferably from Salt & Straw, which also uses natural local flavorings (for the most part). They’ve got a dairy farm, and her uncle makes ice cream, experimenting with a wide variety of natural flavors. The story is of the summer after high school of a Métis girl named Louisa who lives with her mother and uncles in the prairies of Alberta, Canada. I think the cover put me off, honestly - maybe they could have done something with ice cream? But as soon as I started listening, I was captivated. I try to read the winners I miss during the year of publication, and this one took me a long time to get around to listening to.
