Serendipity by Becky Chalsen
funny
lighthearted
medium-paced
- Plot- or character-driven? A mix
- Strong character development? It's complicated
- Loveable characters? It's complicated
4.0
Three Weekends + Four Friends
Thank you, Dutton Books, for the gifted copy of Serendipity by Becky Chaldean {partner}
Genre: Fiction
Format: 🎧📖
Pub Date: 6.4.2024
Star Rating: ☆☆☆☆
I wasn’t sure what I would find in the pages of Serendipity - I just knew I was drawn toward the title and the beautifully illustrated cover. What I found inside was a nostalgia-filled story that reminded me of the friendships I still carry in my heart even though we’ve all gone our separate ways.
The setting of Fire Island provided the perfect setting and added an almost magical feel. Yes, the friends still went out drinking at night, but during the day, they became the sand castle-building kids of their youth.
While I didn’t love the ending, I tried not to let that shadow my overall enjoyment of the story. I think a lot of people will enjoy the ending, but it just wasn’t for me.
☀️The setting
🗣️ Multiple POV’s
🫶🏼 A love letter to friendship
👏🏼 Perfect summer reading
🤷🏽♀️ The ending was just okay
I recommend reading Serendipity if you’re looking for a light summer read to take to the pool, lake, or beach!
