2.0
Lottie Wilkes is at her wits end with her husband, she decided that she would not have sex with him again until he kissed her, that was last year. She spots a sign for Hopewell Cottage Little Lost Island Maine. She decides to take things into her own hands and go away for the month of August. She leaves for the entire month of August.
Rose Arbuthnut is a stay at home mom of twins Ben and Bea. Ben is a troublemaker and has recently been kicked out of preschool. Rose meets Lottie at the sign for the cabin and quickly decides she needs a month to get away and have her own life. Her husband is a famous book author but that is a secret and he is currently sleeping on the couch.
Caroline Dester is an actress that has recently been made of fool of at the Oscar's. She is amazing and the most beautiful woman in the world (according to her). he decides that she should take the month of August to recover from her recent trauma, she decides to join Lottie and Rose at the cabin for the month of August.
Beverly Johnson is a man and he is color blind. He is crotchety and wants to spend his entire August alone in his room, at the cottage on Little Lost Island. He has recently lost his cat of 20 years and the love of his life his husband.
All these people come together to spend an enchanted August together. They are 4 people with nothing in common that need to get away and hide.
The book wasn't terrible but the ending felt forced. Also the characters were not very likeable. I hated Caroline, Beverly just seemed angry all the time, Rose seemed pitiable, and Lottie was just kind of annoying.
