Perfect summertime entertainment. Characters were likeable and honest. I even found myself routing for a happy ending. Fun to rediscover Judy Blume after 20 years. She still can write a very enjoyable book. ( )

I forgot I had read this until I saw it being promoted at a nearby local bookstore. I read a lot of Judy Blume books as an 11 year old and was really pleased that she had written a book for adults.

I really enjoyed this book, it must have been a good six or seven years since I read it but I remember that I really liked it and found it difficult to put down. ( )

This is my SSR book for Q 4. I have read 317 pages. The book is basically what it sounds like. It's a story of two girls of the same age, but being completely two different, opposite people. One of the girls,Caitlin,is more of an extrovert and is known as the popular one, while the other,Victoria, is completely shy, timid and looked upon as the poor loser. The two girls eventually become friends and Caitlin and her family invite Victoria (or Vix) to stay the summer with them at their summer beach house. After many arguments with her mother, Victoria is able to go and the two girls spend an amazing summer together there. From that summer on, VIctoria tags along with Caitlin and her family every summer at the beach house; thus where the name Summer Sisters came. The two share some of their most remarkable memories together,from boys to college, and they become inseperable. I really enjoyed the book because I felt I could relate in a lot of the situations that the girls were put in and because I felt it was really easy to understand rather than complicated. ( )

When Caitlin moves to Santa Fe in the mid 1970s and invites Vix to summer with her on Martha's Vineyard, Vix has no idea that she's beginning a life-long relationship with her "summer sister". Nor does she know that Caitlin will ultimately affect her life in many ways - sometimes as negative as they are positive. Wonderful, enthralling story. ( )

This is one of my favorite books. I love Vix and her voice but I also enjoy the snippets from the other characters, that fill out the story. This is a book I pick up periodically and never get tired of. ( )
