Summer Sisters by Judy Blume
4.0
Long time fan of Judy Blume's teen books, this is my second read of her adult books.
Early on this read as one of her teens books - it documented the friendship of two girls who spent time together over summer, learning about themselves, and in true Judy Blume fashion they explored their sexuality (and there are references to sexual encounters - a warning for those who might wish to avoid such discussions).
The story covered more adult concerns - like getting a job - as the novel progressed, and whilst the ending was not surprising, I did enjoy this easy, perfect for summer read. The storyline is good, and although I didn't warm to any specific characters, it kept me engaged.
