My Rating: 4 Stars
Here’s why
I was so excited for this book to come out and get my hands on my own copy!
Hollis Shaw has just had the blow of a lifetime – her husband has just died unexpectedly. As a famous food blogger, she has fans all over the world watching her every move, so when she sees an idea online that might help her recover from this tragedy, she jumps right on it. Five friends from five different stages of her life, Hollis has invited them all to her home on Nantucket for the weekend, and has planned every event and every meal to a T; but what she hasn’t planned is some of the drama her five “stars” are bringing along with them.

This is such a creative plot and I love the concept!
Elin Hilderbrand is an author I have grown to love, especially on her Nantucket Island/world of characters. These characters go through real-life scenarios while also not feeling too heavy. She really does have a great skill of balancing serious situations with the lightness a “beach read” is expected to contain.
I am giving this book 4 stars because I couldn’t wait to read it, I was not disappointed, and the characters each had a really unique role to play in the story. It was very enjoyable to read and I definitely think Elin has a very special touch to how she handles her stories/characters that I have grown accustomed to.
If you have not read an Elin Hilderbrand novel I would highly recommend! I have read quite a few now and always look forward to the next release! Some reviews are down below 🙂
HAPPY READING 🙂
