The Summer of Lost and Found by Mary Alice Monroe

4.0

Fans of the Beach House series will enjoy re-connecting with the Rutledge family as they navigate the unknowns of the coronavirus pandemic. Linnea is contemplating her life after being laid off and she returns to the family beach house. The story explores the complexities of families and how individuals react differently to situations including quarantining/isolating and caring for sick family members.
If you are not ready to read a story with the pandemic as a backdrop, this is not the book for you-as there are many references to the virus and the 2020 shutdown. I do feel that added to the dynamics between the characters, thus creating a realistic and enjoyable story. 3.5 Stars
Thank you to the author and NetGalley for the opportunity to read an advance copy, all thoughts and opinions are my own.
