Vince Calloway doesn't remember Rainer's Glen. He knows the facts. He stayed there twice before. He knows his aunt's name, the color of her house, the way the cold works its way in by degrees. He knows there's a boy named Sammy who picks him up from the airport like no time has passed at all. What he doesn't know is why everyone in this town looks at him like they're waiting for something. There's a rec center that's been closed for five years. A fourth kid in a photograph he can't place. A blank at the end of a sentence he can't finish, where a whole summer used to be. Rainer's Glen remembers him better than he remembers it. SOMETIMES AFTER is a YA contemporary novel about the things we carry without knowing, the people who hold our history when we can't, and the quiet truth that the better things in life don't always arrive on time. They come sometimes after.
