Books [Novels] That Are About Summer

[GregH]

Hey guys- I need some help from the book lovers on this forum...

With summer fast approaching, I am looking for a list of books that are about summer, or at least largely take place during the summer. You know, books where the summer is almost like a character in itself. Some examples of what I'm talking about:

---Dandelion Wine by Bradbury
---Tender Is the Night by FSF
---the Lake Wobegon series by Keillor [I've never read any of these, but I think they usually take place during the summer]

So, I'm not looking for a Summer Reading List, but, rather, books where the summer is an integral part of the plot.

And, one more nitpick, I'm not interested in any 'genre' books, like serial killer thrillers that take place during a summer heat wave, or anything like that.

Hope to hear some suggestions!
Thanks,
Greg
