Helpful Score: 3
A wonderfully inviting story that captures the perfect summer vacation with just the girlfriends. After reading this book, I wanted to call my closest girl friends and book a month away! As the three best friends were in different points in their lives, it was nice to see each friend work through their own personal tragedies and come to more or less a nice and neat conclusion. Another character joins these three in their beach house and ends up mixing things up a bit.
My one little complaint about the book lies in the fourth character Maryn. I loved how she was introduced and you werent sure where she was going to fit into the story. But as the reader gets into the second half, I felt as though she was lost in the shuffle. She was lost to the wayside, until she becomes the focal point as the book concludes. As always, I will not reveal this ending as it is worth the read, but maybe if she had a larger role throughout the book, I wouldnt have felt so sideswiped when the book starts to finish.
The arc of the three best friends was touching, emotional, and felt very real. I saw the personalities of my best friends and how we can see each others situations as so much better than our own. I know I covet where my friends are in their lives and maybe some of them covet where I am yet- maybe not! I wanted to be a part of their group because I felt as though they were real people with real issues and situations that the everyday woman could find herself in, whether that be a job change, relationship status change or a move for a significant other. These women were going through things each woman could relate to no matter the time of their lives.
A read that my mom has already loved and thoroughly enjoy. I am passing it along to my friends who need the perfect summer read, even if fall may be beginning.
