Libby Kelting had always felt herself born out of time. No wonder the historical romance-reading, Jane Austen-adaptation-watching, all-around history nerd jumped at the chance to intern at Camden Harbor, Maine’s Oldest Living History Museum. But at Camden Harbor Libby’s just plain out of place, no matter how cute she looks in a corset. Her cat-loving coworker wants her dead, the too-smart-for-his-own-good local reporter keeps pushing her buttons, her gorgeous sailor may be more shipwreck than dreamboat — plus Camden Harbor’s haunted. Over the course of one unforgettable summer, Libby learns that boys, like ghosts, aren’t always what they seem.

Nicht ganz so cool sind allerdings Sommerferien ohne Handy, Lipgloss und andere Errun...
3.5 stars. I really enjoyed this book. It was very funny, light-hearted, and sweet. I'm not usually one to choose books based on the season, but this is definitely a great summer read! The overall plotline was...predictable, but the details and characters made it an interesting journey to get there....
After reading Past Perfect by Leila Sales and loving it, I thought I'd really enjoy reading this book as well. While I did enjoy it, I enjoyed the Sales more. That's not to say that this book wasn't good because it was, I just spent a good portion of this book, annoyed to high heaven with Libby.You ...
