Summary: Brings Back Memories
Review: "Two Summers Too Hot" brings back memories of growing up in my hometown. It is a short book by most standards, but a fun read. The author takes the characters in a small southern town and spins an entertaining yarn around them. The editor missed some things but it did not interfere with the story. I enjoyed reading this little piece of Southern literature.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Summertime reading fun
Review: "Two Summers Too Hot" is great summertime reading fun. It gives an accurate portayal of summer in the south, and throws in a clever plot and enjoyable characters. I'm not sure I'll ever trust my pharmacist again! Carter Benfield is a most enjoyable young boy who has to grow up fast in the heat and humidity of a Linton, North Carolina night. You will be surprised at the scheming and plotting of Allison Blackburn, bold and brazen at the age of sweet sixteen. I felt sympathy for the men entrapped in her web of deceit and for her hard-working parents. Buy and enjoy reading this diamond-in-the-rough, pleasant summertime surprise. I look forward to his second book and more enjoyable characters

Summary: A Great Read
Review: "Two Summers Too Hot" is a great read. I did not want to put it down until I got to the end and found out what happened to Allison and to Carter. The format was well-suited to the story development. Best of all were the characters - both their development and what happened to them as a result of their dreams and actions. I hope there is a Book Two that tells us what happens next!

Summary: New Edition-Perfect Story for Your Summer Beach Trip
Review: I loved this book. I had read the first edition, but this new paperback has more story at a better price. The author, Wilson Crawford, is from North Carolina and seems to understand what growing up in the South is all about. The characters, a young boy growing into manhood and young woman, trying to escape the clutches of a dead end, boring mill town are developed skillfully. Their lives are detailed during two separate summers in the town of Linton, North Carolina. The author weaves their lives together, intertwining on a chance set of circumstances, one hot humid night. It causes a scandal of epic proportions in this little town where nothing happens but the stop lights changing. Enjoy this book. I'm going to read "The Envelope" next-I enjoy the style of Mr. Crawford. Very easy to read.

Summary: Great book!!
Review: I loved this book. It is not a long book which makes it nice to read over a weekend, which is what I did. The main characters, Carter Benfield and Allison Blackburn, are both very interesting. Carter has the innocence of a twelve year old boy who is beginning to discover some of life's exciting secrets. Allison is a hot, willful, young woman who wants more that the small town of Linton, North Carolina can offer. I like the way the lives of these two characters are detailed, then gradually come together in an exciting, suspenseful climax. I look forward to more books by this author!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great Book About Life In A Small Southern Town!
Review: I really enjoyed this book. I grew up in a small town in South Carolina and I feel like I know some of these characters. The story has something for everyone-love, romance, suspense, and coming-of-age all rolled into one. I read this book over the weekend on a beach trip-it isn't long-but worth every minute. I couldn't put it down until I found out what happened. I look forward to more books by this author.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Two Summers to "COOL"
Review: Man!! This was a tight book!! I mean it was off the hook! The wheels on the tank! Tom Clancy better move over, there is a new DAWG in town and his name is WILSON! I can't say enough about this book. It had it all, it reminded me of my childhood, well minus all the wedgies! Bottomline, this was a heck of a read. I hope it makes movie of the week on FOX! Just read this BOOK!!!
