review 1: This was okay--a nostalgic book about a bunch of friends getting together in the summer in the oceanside town where they had lived long ago. Now there is a fashion designer from Chicago who is supposed to be getting engaged--with ring--to her fiance back there, but who keeps postponing her departure as she falls in love. A man who has trouble keeping a job is offered the chance to take over the diner where he has been working--and pay off the owner slowly. Two women learn a secret about each other.
review 2: I'm not sure what the writer was trying to achieve with this over written novel and it's easy to see why it was self published, rather than commercially published. The bare bones of the story, protagonist Maris returning to Connecticut after her fathers ... moredeath, reconnecting with old friends who are also going through mid life "crises" is a solid, albeit predictable story. Unfortunately, the writer seemed to try too hard to produce unique, literary prose that she ruined the book with superfluous adjectives, adverbs and awkward wording that she ruined the story for me. less
