The Beach Club
My thoughts: I love reading Elin Hilderbrand’s books and this one certainly didn’t disappoint. In The Beach Club we follow the goings-on at Nantucket’s popular beach club and hotel. It explores the lives and secrets of several people at the beach club during the club’s open season, from May to October. I really liked how all the characters were introduced right in the beginning and then we could follow them as the summer progressed. While I have never actually been to Nantucket, I felt as if I was right there on the island as this story unfolds – Hilderbrand does a great job describing the island and the characters are well-developed. Filled with romance, a little mystery, a hurricane and lots of fun in the sun, this is a great beach read.
(I got this book through PaperBack Swap.)
Nice review! Thank you for sharing…
This sounds like a good one. I'm going to have to pick this one up. Great review.
Thanks for the review. I am taking a Elin Hilderbrand book on vacation tomorrow but this one is new to me.
