Summary: Girls growing up, in an interesting way
Review: It is definitely not what I expected, but then again the last time I read one of her books was when I was ten.

Summary: Summer Sisters is a must-read for women!
Review: This book about two very different teenage girls coming of age together really affected me. It was hard to put it down whenever my son woke from his nap! The idea that Victoria's life headed in such a new direction because of a girl she admired is amazing. Victoria's thoughts and actions were very much influenced by this girl, Caitlin, who becomes her "summer sister". I loved the way it felt to read about Vix's feelings, bringing back some not-always-good memories of my own first love and sexual experiences. Read to find out how these two women relate to one another as adults, and see who they choose to spend the rest of their lives with!!! Great ending!

Summary: Excellent. A work of pure art.
Review: This was the best Judy Blume book I've ever read in my entire life. The characters she creates are so realistic and lifelike, and the friendship between Vix and Caitlin made me want to laugh and cry. Every page of the book was a sharp turn---I never knew where it would head next. At first I thought I knew how it would end by reading the prolouge, but there are complexities underneath it. If you are a Judy Blume fan, you must read this book. It could easily be a guide to my life. The transitions between teen and adult is rocky yet smooth at the same time. A must read.

Summary: As a 13 year old, I loved every page of this "adult book".
Review: I couldn't put this book down because of the intriguing plot twists and the great character development. I've read many of Judy Blume's young adult books, but this one was much more entertaining and rewarding.

Summary: I usually cannot "get into" fiction anymore...
Review: ... opting for non fiction now as an adult, but the characters in this novel were compelling. Judy Blume has a knack for getting readers involved in the characters she creates. When I still had 100 pages left I couldn't help reading the last chapter to find out what would happen to them. That knowledge didn't make the last chapter the second time around any less emotional. I found it interesting that the choice Vix made at age 12, to spend the summer with Caitlin on Martha's Vineyard, changed her future completely. Also that the fate of a character I didn't care for left me profoundly touched, says something about the quality of the plot and characters. I am only ranking this story with four stars because I don't think I will read it again the way I repeatedly reread Judy Blume's children books when I was a child. I cannot put my finger on why I won't read it again though..

Summary: I was terribly dissapoimted with Judy Blume on this one.
Review: This was chock-full of sex. I sat down wanting to read just a good book, and this is what i got. I am 15 years old, and have always loved Judy Blume. My opinion of her has sky-rocketed down.

Summary: Summer romance, summer friends but lifetime memories
Review: I love it!! I am now 22yrs. old and have always loved Blume's work. But this struck home. How many of us have experienced a summer flig with your summer girlfriend. Blume gave us a look at two different girls who spend the summer together and athough they are complete opposite with different values on everything, the two of them need and want each other more than they know it. I had a summer friend who I spent every waken moment with her and then teh boys. :) I recommend this book to any women who once had or wanted to have a summer sister. As a reading teacher, I don't recommend this book for any teenager or young reader, this an adult book.

Summary: Not as good as others I have read by this author
Review: I was dissappointed in this novel. Sure the story development was fine and I like the way Ms. Blume showed each characters' thoughts, but it seemed to me that it wasn't much of a story. Who hasn't had a friend from the time they were young and gone through even more than the two main characters did? I had a best friend from third grade that slept with my boyfriend and she didn't run away for years and then come up missing.The only reason I finished this book is that it was the only thing I had to read on the plane.
Rating:
Summary: I do not think it was a good book
Review: I would not read this book again. If you want to have your girls get into living with her friends and not worry about them, this book is for them. I would never let any of my girls read this book. I thought it was an awful story and I really felt bad someone took the time to write it.
