The High Season by Judy Blundell

4.0

This was an entertaining and fun read surrounding social class and the allure and mishaps that accompany each level. Enjoy vacation getaways for the snobby rich and famous intermingled with the everyday life for the unsatisfied natives struggling for more. Experience drama, jealousy, greed, devotion, friendship, and, of course, love. Each and every character were developed so well and held me captive throughout. There were so many layers and storylines, some believable and consistent with the real-life that happens around us every day, and some that maybe were embellished and exaggerated in a playful way. From love affairs to breakups, everlasting friendships to teenage bullying, and acceptance to rejection; the reader experiences a myriad of life milestones through the lives of the characters. I was enthralled by the sociology and psychology in this book and how they were presented through the actions of the colorful characters.

Thank you to Netgalley and Random House for the advanced reader copy of The High Season.
