kschnure 's review for:

Silver Girl by Elin Hilderbrand

4.0

---

4 stars on a beach book scoring scale. Engaging story with absurd drama that is the hallmark of this type of book, lots of talk of summertime and Nantucket and other wistful fluff, and a plot that only sort of manages to hold up to a plausibility test - what more do you want in a beach read? I also really liked that the two main characters were ladies pushing 50, and that they were framed as smart even as they reflected on all of the dumb things they had done.
This was my first Hilderbrand novel, would read more when I'm in need of something light and fun with lots of WASPy Nantucketness!
