“Summer Sisters is a book to return to again and again.”—Colleen Hoover
“This is my all-time favorite summer read. It’s so juicy and fun. . . . But it’s also about female friendship and class and what it means to be a woman. Once you start reading this, you cannot put it down.”—Jenna Bush Hager, in Woman’s World
“As warm as a summer breeze blowing through your hair, as nostalgic as James Taylor singing ‘How Sweet It Is.’ You remember. So does Judy Blume. How sweet it was.”—Chicago Tribune
In the summer of 1977, Victoria Leonard’s world changes forever when Caitlin Somers chooses her as a friend. Dazzling, reckless Caitlin welcomes Vix into the heart of her sprawling, eccentric family, opening doors to a world of unimaginable privilege, sweeping her away to vacations on Martha’s Vineyard, an enchanting place where the two friends become “summer sisters.”
Now, years later, Vix is working in New York City. Caitlin is getting married on the Vineyard. And the early magic of their long, complicated friendship has faded. But Caitlin begs Vix to come to her wedding, to be her maid of honor. And Vix knows that she will go—because she wants to understand what happened during that last shattering summer. And, after all these years, she needs to know why her best friend—her summer sister—still has the power to break her heart.

Reviews
Good book about female friendship
"A great story focused on female friendships and the strong bonds it creates. At times there were over sexualized parts of the book I didn’t find necessary. The writing is good and allows for a quick easy read - I finished in a week."
— Jo05 (3/5)

Start reading season with this book
"This book was given to me by a great friend and I read it in one day. It is the book that I read whenever I need to get into reading again. It is a great book about friendship and carries the reader from pre-teen to adulthood. It is beautifully written, the characters are real and you feel a part of the family. Definitely recommend!"

Summer read
"I read this book 19 years ago when it was first published and i never forgot it. Re reading it again did not disappoint. It makes for a great summer/vacation read"
— Kjo987456 (5/5)
An compelling look at female friendship.
"I really, really loved this book. It's the first 'adult novel' i've read from Blume and i'm so happy I did. If you had a close female friendship growing up this book will really resonate with you and even if you didn't you will enjoy it immensely. Blume has the unique talent of being able to put into words the little details that make friendships so special. Don't skip reading the beginning of the readers guide where Blume talks about her friend Mary, chances are that relationship will feel very familiar to you. #PlumReview"
