Summer is one of the greatest friends that August has. She is the only person that approached August by her own, not by being asked by the principal. Summer's reasoning for sitting next to August the first day of school; she felt sorry for August. I liked the character of Summer. She was another strong, female character like Via. Summer was pretty and had potential to be very popular, but she chose kindness over popularity. This is really seen at the Halloween party she was invited to just to be confronted my the popular kids about why she would hang out with August. She left the party and never looked back.
One thing I really enjoyed about Part 3 was the explanation of life after death by Summer. She believed that we visit heaven shortly to reunite with the ones we love and from there we are born into a new life. It was a combination of the heavens and reincarnation. August really appreciated this theory. The thought that he might be born again brought him happiness. Part 3 was a very short, but sweet chapter. It was a nice look into the mind of a truly caring friend of August.
