Hot Dog Girl by Jennifer Dugan is the story of an epic summer spent working at an amusement park.
Elouise "Lou" Parker is hopeful for an amazing summer. It is her second summer working at Magic Castle Playland with her best friend Seeley - a place that is also nostalgic because it is where her parent met.
Lou is hoping for a good costume this year, not the hot dog she had to wear last year. If she is really lucky, it will be something that puts her near the diving pirates - Nick in particular.
Seeley is an artist who is happy this is her last summer in town before leaving for college. She is usually up for anything, but trying to help Lou get together with Nick is not on her list. Nor is Lou trying to set her up with someone when she is still getting over her ex-girlfriend.
Dugan has written a fun, summer read. It is sweet, humorous and heartfelt.
