The Forever Summer
The Forever Summer | Jamie Brenner
28 posts | 21 read | 22 to read
The discovery of long-buried secrets brings three generations of women together to Cape Cod for the summer homecoming of a lifetime. Marin Bishop has always played by the rules, and it's paid off: on the cusp of thirty she has a handsome fianc, a prestigious Manhattan legal career, and her father's hard-won admiration. But with one careless mistake at work, Marin suddenly finds herself unemployed and alone. Before she can summon the courage to tell her parents, a young woman appears, claiming to be Marin's half-sister. Seeking answers, Marin agrees to join her on a soul-searching journey to Cape Cod, to meet the family she didn't even know she had. As the summer unfolds at her grandmother's beachside B&B, it becomes clear that her half-sister's existence is just the first in a series of truths that will shake Marin's beliefs--in love, and in her own identity--to the core. Filled with shocking revelations, heartfelt romance, and resilient women banding together against the most unexpected twists of fate, THE FOREVER SUMMER is an emotionally resonant page-turner, and a delicious escape for any season.

Excellent summer reading, the pacing felt a bit weird (characters seemed a little too familiar too fast) but it‘s not like I picked this expecting it to be super realistic.

TODAY‘S PROMPT: COME TOGETHER

“THE FOREVER SUMMER brings together an unknown half sister, a grandmother, and memories of a father the sisters never knew.

The generations of women and how they connected as strangers was wonderful, and the beach setting was perfect for the connections and story line.”

Sooooo many books have a summer setting. Here's just s taste what I've got to read still. Anyone tackle these yet? #summertitles #sizzlinsummerreads

KathyWheeler I read All Summer Long and didn't like it. Frank seems to be hit or miss with me and that one was a miss. 7y
Purrfectpages @KathyWheeler I don't think I've read any books by her before. I could be wrong. 7y
KathyWheeler @Purrfectpages She's one I generally like for beach reading, but every so often one of her books will just go off the rails. To me, this was one. I didn't like anyone in it. (edited) 7y

It's not a bad book. It's a sweet story with great metaphors. I don't need a story to wrap up perfectly. I prefer a more realistic approach. It's a fine summer read and keeps one turning the pages, just too predictable and nicely tied up to be memorable for me.

Family secrets, complicated relationships, and newly discovered truths to be uncovered at every corner. This book is packed with heart and unexpected turns. Exactly what a summer read should be!

We're under a heat warning here, with a current "feels like" temperature of 35. If this heat keeps up, it certainly will feel like summer forever! This #summerreads is from my TBR. #riotgrams

This was really good. There's a pretty strong gay theme thruout so if that's not your thing, just an FYI. No sex, it's just....there.
Anyway, I enjoyed this a lot. I'm bothered by how the one sister "appears" to be repeating her mother's devastating secret but I guess we'll never know. I love the Provincetown setting! I want to spend a summer there.

This would be great to listen to at the beach! For our June book club, I'm looking forward to discussing it at next week's meeting! I didn't love the characters but all the secrets flying made this a fun read nonetheless! #BookClub #BeachReads #AudioBook #AudioColoring
