	The SF Site Featured Review: The Door Into Summer
		This is The Door Into Summer, a Robert A. Heinlein novel from 1957 (serialized in 1956), the very height of his glorious "middle period," when he was still writing compact novels, and when he was also writing his juveniles.
		The Door Into Summer is one of Heinlein's sunniest novels, and one of his most straightforwardly enjoyable.
		For Dan Davis, the Door into Summer is the door to the future.

		Naked!" Through the door, Seth responds, "Is that supposed to keep me away?" Summer scurries to let him in, and then shortly concludes, "You're at my house." He looks her over and responds, "And you are dressed.
		Summer leaps forward to kiss him, and they fall to the bed together; she unzips her sweat jacket (it's sexier than it sounds) and lies on top of him.
		Two seconds into the kissing, she asks if he has a condom, except she fumbles toward calling it a "you know." He does have one in his wallet, and then rambles that he was starting to view it as a rabbit's foot for good luck.

	The door into summer
		THE OLD CAT door was a swinging metal contraption with two hooks to latch it.
		They developed a technique of pushing the door open slightly with their noses, making a sensory assessment, pushing it farther open and making a visual and aural reconnaissance, then, after a pause to assess the odds, plunging through and running outside, outsmarting the nameless odorless malign Other hiding just outside.
		Bucket has learned that I open the front door to get the paper in the morning, and she stations herself there and scampers inside.

	The Door Into Summer \| Classic Book Reviews \| SCI FI Weekly
		Dan then spends the coming months assuring that Belle and Miles do not benefit from their swindle, and that when he returns via cold sleep to 2000 for the second time, his business, his cat and his new fiancée (Ricky 10 years older) will be there with him.
		Dan's relationship with Ricky is one of the more talked-about issues with The Door Into Summer, along with the arguably simplistic characterization and some questionable technological and social extrapolations for the future years of 1970 and 2000.
		The Door Into Summer is the ultimate feel-good novel, and perhaps should be prescribed to anyone in need of a boost in morale.

	Bed Bath & Beyond Survival 101 - The ''Last'' Summer
		My friends and I figured that the summer before we left for college was somehow the last chance we’d have for being together and having fun.
		What we did do was plan a day at a spa, where we were to be transformed from grade level students into collegiate women ready to take on the world, just by coordinating our lipstick colors and exfoliating.
		Later on in the summer we tried taking a four-hour ferry ride and got all dressed up for it, again under the pretense that this somehow represented scholarly growth.

		Even if it is still standing it would not be desirable rental because of the fall-out, but we liked it then, Pete and I. The lack of plumbing made the rent low and what had been the dining room had a good north light for my drafting board.
		I always tried to arrange a door of his own for Pete- in this case a board fitted into a window in an unused bedroom and in which I had cut a cat strainer wide enough for Pete's whiskers.
		Each time this meant that I had to go around with him to each of eleven doors, hold it open while he satisfied himself that it was winter out that way too, then go on to the next door, while his criticisms of my mismanagement grew more bitter with each disappointment.

		Time travel doesn't even enter into the pages of the first half of the novel (not directly, at least), but the whole story is totally engrossing from the very start.
		Dan explains how Pete would make him open every door in his house whenever it snowed, convinced that behind one of those doors it will be summer time.
		The Door into Summer is much better than Double Star; in fact, it is much better than all but a handful of science fiction novels ever published.

	The Door into Nowhere
		By almost any objective assessment Heinlein was in the superior position to have understood and appreciated cryonics.
		He was a man of extraordinary vision and imagination and he had written about suspended animation, specifically discussing it in a medical rescue context in his classic 1957 novel "The Door Into Summer." He even understood that extension of the human lifespan and the expansion of humanity into space was not only likely but inevitable.
		For he had the courage and the brains not to merely hear about "The Door Into Summer," but to actually step through it.

		As odd as it may sound even in the context of The Door Into Summer with its nuclear war, and swindles by friends and almost-wives, the protagonist never loses his ability to trust a fellow human.

		This phenomenon where cats believe the weather to be different if going outside via different doors of the same house is known as "The Door Into Summer" after an intriguing science fiction book by Robert A Heinlein.
