PUBLISHER'S NOTE Originally published in 2011, The Caretakers (ISBN: 9781463567583) has been reformatted under the title Everyone Has a Summer That Sucks (ISBN: 9798264027710). The new title captures the essence of The Caretakers and repurposes a majority of the content but also includes additional material that gives the reader a broader understanding of the storyline. The new title is also fully edited to address inconsistencies and first-draft errors. The publisher understands some used copies of The Caretakers might still be available for sale, but it is noted that the author has requested no additional print copies are made. As for the new title, again, while some content is repurposed, there are significant updates to the story that called for a republish, under a new title.
AUTHOR'S NOTE I first published The Caretakers in May 2011, and though I was pleased with the overall theme I realized (albeit years later) that the uploaded manuscript had not been fully edited and was missing some key details. Admittedly, I rushed to publish-like many first-time authors do-but now, under the new title, it has been updated to be error free and includes additional material. I hope you'll consider reading the revised edition. Thank you. The sequel is due out summer 2026, in the meantime, follow @TheJamiesonHouse on Instagram and Facebook for more happenings in the Jamieson family saga.
