The Book of Summer by Michelle Gable


Uh oh! Is the weatherman predicting a rainy weekend, but you still want to feel like it’s summer? The Book of Summer takes you to a historical Nantucket home and right into the lives of the strong women of Cliff House from 1914 to the current day. From great-grandmother Sarah to her granddaughter Bess, we learn the secrets, celebrations, and tragedies of life in a grand house. Historic snapshots are skillfully unveiled, clever twists and turns will keep you engaged, and the “swell” time period dialog will keep you entertained. A perfect rainy day read...even better at the beach!
