Summer of '79: A Summer of '69 Story by Elin Hilderbrand
4.0
Could this be the tentative new start of another series? I thoroughly enjoyed revisiting this family again after a ten-year gap. Maybe Elin will grant us another novella covering 1989 and every subsequent 10 years.
Nothing earth-shattering occurs, but you get an update on each character including Exalta, the matriarch, all the way to Blair's twins who are loosely based on Elin and her twin brother. I'm fact, if you didn't know, her brother came up with the idea to cover their birth and the 1969 moon landing, which happened within the same week. She wrote Summer of '69 in response and as a birthday present to him.
My only complaint? Way too short and four more months remain until her next novel comes out.
