Nantucket Nights
by Elin Hilderbrand
Honestly, I really liked the overall idea of this book! But the ending wasn't what I hoped for. Not in the way it ended exactly, but with the fact that it all of a sudden just ended. We never got any closure really. For us as readers, or even half of the characters. We didn't get to see their lives or reactions to the outcome, and I wanted something more.
There was a lot going on in this short book character wise. Unlike other Elin books, the main characters did not capture my attention much. I couldn't connect with any of them, and I found myself questioning how the 3 of them had remained friends for as long as they have.
Also, I really wanted to like Kayla, and in some ways I thought she was great. But her overall constant insecurity with her husband and herself bothered me. and probably more because she never actually asked him outright if he was faithful within their marriage. She let her own fears dictate how she saw him, and in a way how she saw herself.
Because of all the emotions running high I was VERY happy with the multiple perspectives!! Huge fan of that!! It made me really like Raoul's character, and maybe that's why I was bothered so much by Kayla's projection of him.
This wasn't my first Elin book, and I already have more of hers that I plan to read. Overall, I'm glad I read this story, though I'm not sure if I'll be rereading it for a while.
