Summary: File this with "Bridges of Madision County"
Review: I chose this book for our bookclub based on my fond memories of Judy Blume and found it incredibly disappointing. The writing was irritatingly simplistic, the friendship made no sense to me and I could not believe the sudden marriage. WHAT?The one thing I did enjoy was remembering the thrill of my own "backseat of the car" escapades. More disillusioning to me than the book itself is that so many of my female peers rave about it. I put it in the same category of Bridges of Madison County which was also horribly written, stupid and much loved by otherwise sharp women.

Summary: The biggest waste of my time of any book I have ever read
Review: I love to read. In my entire life I can't recall reading a book where my I would really like to get a refund, not on the price of the book, but on my time. The story was shallow, the multitude of characters discombobulated, characters with tiny roles would return to the story for no reason. I could have been equally entertained by reading 14 names of strangers with their date of birth, graduation, marriage, divorce, etc. DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME

Summary: Brings back magical summer memories
Review: I love this book! I was born & raised in New York and spent many summers on the Cape, Marthas Vineyard & Block Island. This book brought back so many wonderful memories of that most special and treasured time of my life. As a 30 year old, I too grew up around the time Vix & Caitlin did. I was amazed at how a book could capture so well what growing up in the late seventies & early eighties was like. Although my life was hardly comparable to Vix & Caitlin's, I could really identify with the emotions that this book captured so well. I once again was transported back to that idyllic time when life seemed so simple and full of promise. A time of discovery filled with friendship, first love and the summer seemed endless. Judy Blume has been a favorite author of mine since my childhood days & this book so captures what drew me to her books in the first place. I am so grateful that she has followed us into adulthood & recaptured those magical days. I cried a lot during this book for the lost friendship of my "summer sister" but I also smiled as all those happy memories flooded back. I highly recommend this book. Vix & Caitlin lived in my heart long after I finsihed the book. I laughed, I cried but most of all I remembered.

Summary: I LOVED THIS BOOK! 5+++++ stars
Review: I could not put this book down. I actually caught myself reaching for it while I was stopped at traffic lights. I loved the way you saw into each character's thoughts and this way getting to know them better. I read Judy Blume growing up now I can enjoy her as an adult. I loved it, what more can I say?

Summary: For anyone who has ever had a best friend.....
Review: With this novel, Judy Blume has successfully re-constructed the best & worst of friendship and growing up. If you don't see shades of your own friendships here, I would be very surprised. Enjoyable, heart-breaking, and funny all at once, Summer Sisters is well worth the time.

Summary: Summer Sisters has spoken to me like no other novel.
Review: Summer Sisters is the best book I have read in years. It captured my attention and held it througout the novel. I was able to escape reality and enter the characters' interwoven lives. Judy Blume writes honestly about events and feelings many of us have often felt. The characters are real, not just letters on a page. I laughed with them, cried with them, and grew angry with them. Judy Blume has written a wonderful book that has touched my life in a way that no other book has.

Summary: Captivating! More than 5 stars!!
Review: Summer sisters was given to me by a friend. I was going on a road trip to Kentucky and needed something to do. I read it in 5 hours with few breaks. It was incredible! I couldn't put it down. We went out to dinner and I took it with me. I strained my eyes in the dark just to read the last few pages. Vix and Kateline became part of me and this book will stay with me forever! I highly recommend reading this and suggesting it to friends. It was the best book I have EVER read!

Summary: I Loved this Book !
Review: This book was great ! I enjoyed learing about the characters in the begining of the novel and sort of what you could say " growing up " w/ them. As you read more you begin to learn about each charater and how there friendship changed threw life. After learning everything about the characters the end was very dramatic and sad. It makes you shed a tear.I loved the book and I encourage anyone to read it.

Summary: Make it a movie!!!
Review: Summer Sisters was a great book. As Vix grew older the story got better!! The irony of the story got confusing at certain places, but in the end it works out. I loved how the different characters had a page or so of there thoughts. It makes you want to say He soo loves you or just listen to her you'll regret it! Ms. Blume four words " Summer Sisters totally rocks!!!!"
