A review by kategci
Bittersweet by Miranda Beverly-Whittemore

4.0

This is such a summer read and it reminded me of other summer reads, I,e, Seating Arrangements by Maggie Shipstead and Maine by Courtney Sullivan. The story is narrated by an outsider of an old New England family who is the college roommate of a privileged daughter. For much of the story, it seems like a beachy book, but there is a turn and it becomes something else. I thoroughly enjoyed the something else and the author transitions well. The transition could have been sooner, but I enjoyed reading about this huge, dysfunctional family.
