Bad Summer People by Emma Rosenblum

adventurous dark mysterious tense medium-paced

4.0

The wealthy, summer residents of Salcombe on Fire Island are expecting it to be another summer filled with tennis, swimming and socializing, but as summer goes on, their lying, one-up-man-ship and scheming starts to catch up with everyone.  Secrets come to light and, for some, there are dire consequences.  

This book was like watching and episode of Desperate Housewives or The Stepford Wives.  The characters' behavior was misconduct was so distasteful, but I had to see how it all turned out. There  were a lot of characters to get straight in the beginning and a few far fetched scenes, but overall it was an entertaining, summer read.

Thanks to the Macmillan Audio Influencer Program for an ARC in exchange for my honest opinion!
