Summerhouse
Summerhouse | Jude Deveraux
13 posts | 19 read | 7 to read
Have you ever wanted to rewrite your past? Three best friends, all with the same birthday, are about to turn forty. Celebrating at a summerhouse in Maine, Leslie Headrick, Madison Appleby, and Ellie Abbott are taking stock of their lives and loves, their wishes and choices. But none of them expect the gift that awaits them at the summerhouse: the chance for each of them to turn their "what-might-have-beens" into reality... Leslie, a suburban wife and mother, follows the career of a boy who pursued her in college wonders: what if she had chosen differently? Madison dropped a modeling career to help her high school boyfriend recover from an accident, even though he'd jilted her. But what if she had said "no" when her old boyfriend had called? Ellie became a famous novelist, but a bitter divorce wiped out her earnings -- and shattered her belief in herself. Why had the "justice" system failed her? And could she prevent its happening the second time around? Now, a mysterious "Madame Zoya," offers each of them a chance to relive any three weeks from the past. Will the road not taken prove a better path? Each woman will have to decide for herself as she follows the dream that got away...and each must choose the life that will truly satisfy the heart's deepest longings.

I‘m posting one book a day from my massive collection. No description, no reason for why I want to read it (some I‘ve had so long I don‘t even remember why!) Feel free to join in!

Where has the summer gone? My daughter leaves for college Thurs and my son begins 8th Grade Thurs. I am not ready to let my babies out of my sight. I am struggling horribly with the idea of them going to in-school learning with Covid-19.

LiteraryinPA I hear that. 💜 4y
robinb Totally understand. My son‘s college classes are online (thank goodness). 4y
Freespirit It‘s a scary time. Xxx 4y

Mostly picked this one up because it was this month's bookclub pick. Not something I would have normally picked up for myself but overall an enjoyable read.

Not something I would normally pick for myself but it is the latest book club pick at work. I figured I would take advantage of the fact that I can participate in the book club when quarantined at home via Zoom and give it a go.

As of last night these two favorites were on sale on Kindle. Seriously, there was something so completely magical about these - super recommend! And as of March 6 there was a third book added: As You Wish! I think that means it‘s time for a re-read here :)

Not a bad book about three woman getting together after 19 years and talk about their lives, then go into their pasts and see which life they want to live
