About this listen

Vix Leonard is twelve when she meets dazzling, reckless Caitlin Somers. Invited to spend holidays on Martha's Vineyard with Caitlin and her eccentric, mysterious family, Vix is welcomed into a life totally unlike her own. As days of bold adventure give way to nights of shy discovery, she and Caitlin come together in the complications of growing up; the refuge of belonging; the pact to Never Be Ordinary . . . Until one devastating summer when a local boy changes everything.

Years later life has driven them apart, but the bruise of their friendship remains. When Caitlin begs Vix to return to the Vineyard for her wedding, Vix knows she will go. She wants to understand what happened that last shattering summer—and why her best friend still has the power to break her heart.

An unforgettable story of two women, two families and the friendships that shape a lifetime from Judy Blume, the author who shaped our teenage selves.

'Summer Sisters is a book to return to again and again. Judy Blume is my hero.' COLLEEN HOOVER

I've loved my summer sisters for almost 30 years!! my crush on Von and Bru, my eye roll of Lamb and Abby when they're trying to "parent" our free spirits. what do they know about LOVE? crying with Vix when she lost Nathan, and cheering when she realized Gus was 'the one's Vixen and Cassandra Forever!!

the narration was one of my favourites I've ever had to listen to!!

What a fantastic book, left me feeling Nostalgic for my youth. The themes were interesting and performance was great implementing different voices for the various perspectives across the book. Can't wait to listen again.
