Surrender, Dorothy by Meg Wolitzer
2.0
Not sure I would read it again. An interesting read, but not something on my "have to recommend" list.
I didn't like how Maddy just seemed to forgive Peter for his cheating, both with Sara and Natalie. I can understand if Wolitzer had followed their stories into the fall and there she forgave Peter, but within days, it just doesn't seem enough for me.
I did like that she kept the story limited to the summer house and didn't follow their stories because it was a turning point for them and their lives wouldn't follow the same tight-knit path after that summer, you could tell.
