Summerland is a colorful Retrofit, about Santana, who goes to an artist colony to put on a play every summer. The young adults there drink beer and eat pot brownies while making art. Santana is about to go off to law school, and this is her last year at Summerland. Fast forward a few years, and her cousin Gwen is a struggling actress with too much money. It isn't stated where that money comes from. Then Santana goes back to Summerland, where she meets a former colleague.
The art on the cover is pretty much the same as the art in the book, only more fantastic and dreamlike. The art is defined by bright pastel colors and well-defined lines. I put off reading this title for a few weeks because I was not in the mood for something fantastic. I was pleasantly surprised to read that this is a down to earth story about real people. This is another fun Retrofit title.
