East Coast Girls by Kerry Kletter
3.0
When we meet Hannah, she’s stuck. She has an okay job as an advice columnist and spends her days caring for her high school boyfriend who has been in a semi-vegetative state for the past twelve years. Sounds fun, right?
While we don’t know what happened to Hannah’s boyfriend, but it’s clear that something traumatic happened, and that Hannah blames herself. It all very Dive From Clausen’s Pier-esce. So when her old friends, who she spent her summers with on Montauk growing up, decide to reunite for a weekend, Hannah reluctantly gives in.
Things have changed and the girls have grown into very different women. They can’t really go back, but there is something that stays the same when old friends get together. Spending the weekend together, memories are dug up, some good, some bad, and secrets are shared.
East Coast Girls is a solid novel dealing with friendship and what we carry with us from our past. I normally love these types of books. Give me some female friends, a beach, some secrets, maybe a hunk or two and I’m set.
This one took a little bit of time for me to get into. And it’s not quite straight female friendship, but also a little suspense, so I wasn’t sure exactly what I was reading for maybe the first fourth of the novel.
Still, it’s a great read for anyone who loved Summer Sisters, Maine, or even Dive From Clausen’s Pier. Thanks to Netgalley and Harlequin for an advanced e-galley in exchange for my honest review. This one is out May 26, 2020. Get your copy!
