In the summer of 1977, Victoria Leonard’s world changes forever when Caitlin Somers chooses her as a friend. Dazzling, reckless Caitlin welcomes Vix into the heart of her sprawling, eccentric family, opening doors to a world of unimaginable privilege, sweeping her away to vacations on Martha’s Vineyard, an enchanting place where the two friends become “summer sisters”.

Now, years later, Vix is working in New York City. Caitlin is getting married on the Vineyard. And the early magic of their long complicated friendship has faded. But Caitlin begs Vix to come to her wedding, to be her maid of honor. And Vix knows that she will go - because she wants to understand what happened during that last shattering summer. And, after all these years, she needs to know why her best friend - her summer sister - still has the power to break her heart.

With a note read by the author, Judy Blume.

My favourite book I read it so often so I ordered this new one, but it looks like it was maybe used before?

I’ve never read a book like this. I laughed, cried, and found pieces of myself throughout. I was not expecting to enjoy this nearly as much as I did, especially as I doubted it in the beginning. I will forever recommend this!!

Judy Blume at her best

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on October 10, 2015

Every summer I find myself returning to Martha’s Vineyard with Vix and Caitlin, I feel an overwhelming need to say thank you to Judy Blume.

Thank you for the story that has grown with me, a story that I will never be without.

As a child I read everything you wrote and once I’d exhausted the children’s/teens section I was left heartbroken, but then my dad appeared with a book I hadn’t seen before, your third novel for adults, Summer Sisters.

My teenage self eagerly delved into the pages and before I knew it I found myself enthralled and captivated by a friendship that grew over years, I remember losing myself in the girls summers whilst laughing and crying with them.
I never realised with that first read the impact this story would have on my life, the hold these characters would have on my heart.

Every summer I am overwhelmed by the need to be reunited with your words, to visit my friends within the pages and fall in love with the story all over again.

With every read something new resonates with me, as I’ve gotten older I find myself relating to the girls at different stages and this is something that I can’t thank you enough for, the Summer Sisters will always be the story that keeps growing with me.

So Judy Blume, with all my heart I thank you for the words…

Perfect Summer read

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on March 12, 2013

I loved this book as a teenager and still read it nearly every year now I'm in my thirties! It tells the story of two childhood friends, from very different backgrounds and how their friendship evolves as they grow up. It's a great beach/holiday read, really charming and will leave you wanting to visit Martha's Vineyard - sounds idyllic! If you liked Judy Blume books as a child, definitely worth a read.

Reread after many years- still loved it but not as much as when I was a teen.

I was a teenager when this book first came out. I loved it and it was one of my favourite books. I've just downloaded and reread it on my Kndle as a 30-something. I still love it and recommend it as a great read - it's well written with an interesting storyline. But I do actually think it should be marketed more as a book for older teenagers and perhaps very early 20s- they are the ones who are likely to relate to much of the sex, relationships and family stuff. It made such an impression on me as a teenager, but I don't think it would have had the same impact if I'd been reading it for the first time as a 30-something.

This book has stayed with me for more than half my life!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on October 8, 2017

This is my absolute favourite book, I had read it at least 25 times, I read it every year and I pretty know which words are coming next. I was 14 when I first read it, it completely sums up how it feels to be a teenager, how it feels to grow up and how it feels to be an adult with responsibilities, to witness people doing it right and people making mistakes. I have never been able to put this book down, it has stayed with me for coming up 20 years and its still my favourite read of all time.
