Very enjoyable light read with enough intrigue to keep it interesting, however I found the wrapup of almost every single plot line kind of unsatisfying

4/5 ⭐️
I enjoyed reading this book! The author’s writing style has depth and description without it being too much. Each character felt flushed out and with their own archs.
There were times where the book felt too patriotic but I guess that’s what you get when you read a book about an American family in Nantucket. Overall, very enjoyable.

The ending wasnt even sad and yet here I am crying? Great book that taught me phones were NOT always on private lines!
Not quite as compelling as other Hilderbrand books I've read. I was particularly interested in this, because it was a significant year for me (high school graduation). Parts were unrelatable, mostly due to the class difference between me and the people in the story, but still an entertaining read. I appreciated Hilderbrand's note at the end, explaining her motivation in writing the story.
Solid beach read. All of the connected stories, full of romance and a little mystery, will keep you interested and give you that “summer read” feeling.
