I received an advanced copy of this book.
While there is a book club in this book, the main focus of the story is on friends Laurel and Paris, and then Cassie who moves to town for a six month trial-run. Each of the women have had relationship or family challenges and are juggling various opportunities to stretch themselves and try something new. Their book club does provide an outlet for discussions the romantic heroines of the stories and perhaps take some similar chances in their own lives.

Once again, Susan Mallery hit a grand slam with The Summer Book Club!
There are three rules for summer book club: No sad books. No pressure. Yesssssss, wine!
Paris and Lauren are lifelong friends who just happen to meet Cassie in a bookstore/wine bar. Soon the three are great friends, book club members, sounding boards, and pseudo-therapists.
Each of the women examine their lacks of social lives, relationship patterns, strengths, and weakness. They offer each other emotional support and tough love.
If I continue to write, it will be filled with spoilers and I don't want to go there. In my opinion, you can never go wrong with a Susan Mallery book!

I couldn't put it down. When I took this book to work to read during downtime, I didn't realize I'd have A LOT of it to read this book. I almost finished the book during my shift. It's that good.

For some reason I didn’t enjoy this one as much as I usually enjoy Susan Mallery. It kind of felt derivative, which is kind of the point of a lot of romance. Maybe I just wasn’t in the right frame of mind.
