Summer Sisters is an adult read about two friends from young through adult, Caitlin stays on Martha's Vinyard every summer with her father and has invited Vix from Santa Fe to stay and this becomes an every summer happening. Vix becomes a part of this privileged family through these summer visits so the family pay her Harvard education while Caitlin is the wild one who chooses to live the lavish life in Europe instead of school. It is a good fast read.

I loved this book; I did not want it to end. It starts out rather slow but after a few chapters it picks up nicely. It made me laugh and made me cry. I wish Judy Blume would do a sequel to it.

I didn't really care for this book. I thought that the way the book was written was confusing. At least Judy Blume puts each name at the top of the pages so that you can following who is thinking and saying what. I thought that there were too many characters to keep track of - I kept getting them mixed up with who belonged to whom. I really didn't like the way the book ended - to much like a television series finally (never really tied up the loose ends).
Beware: This is definately an adult book with a great deal of references to adult themes.

Read this in highschool when I was visiting Martha's Vineyard, where the book takes place. A great read then... will read again soon i am sure. A great adult read from my childhood fav author Judy Blume.

I truly love this book. It's one of the rare books I own that I could read over and over again.

Nostalgic, sweet, made me want to cry, but also riled me up a bit. Characters very believable. Reminds me of some people I knew long, long ago. Touching story, surprising end.

This was a wonderful story, it made me laugh and cry, sometimes at the same time. I couldn't put it down. A must read.

Great book, I wish Judy Blume would write more "adult" books.
