The Second Home
by Christina Clancy
Thank you Netgalley, St. Martin's Press and Christina Clancy for free e-ARC in return of my honest review.
The Second Home is a story about family, about their summer house, Ann, Poppy, and Michael, and about secrets and miscommunication. One fateful summer tore them all apart simply because they all decided to live through tragedy alone.
I really enjoyed The Second House. Characters came alive with every chapter. I particularly liked how Christina Clancy managed to tell the story from three different perspectives and show all characters through each other eyes. This approach gave them volume and dimension. I also liked how the summer house on Cape Cod came alive as a character too. The property probably played major role in reconciliation of all the parties involved. Plot wise is was fine with major event, unforeseen circumstances and great miscommunication. The flow was smooth and build up was good too.
Overall, solid good enjoyable read with some family drama and pretty much happy ending.
