Since this is the first "adult" novel I have read from one of my favorite childhood authors, I was ill-prepared for some of the mature content, and found myself blushing, especially near the beginning of the book (this book is NOT intended for the audience of "Blubber!") However, Blume's writing style has changed very little from her young adult novels, making this an easy read, and I absolutely loved the story of two girls tied by a childhood bond, yet struggling through their relationship as they matured. Victoria's character is especially authentic and relatable, and my heart went out to her as she dealt with the betrayals of a friend she loved dearly.

As a Judy Blume fan in my teen years, it was interesting to find that she could jump from one generation to the next in her writing. Loved this book and was happily surprised that I could still read Judy Blume at my age! Summer Sisters is amazing.

One of my faves. Have read it atleast 6 times. If you enjoy the movie Beaches you will love this book.
