In 1985 four
girls set off to Camp Birchwood. Elizabeth, Veronica, Rachel and Emily will
become best friends, and have no idea how that childhood friendship will affect
the rest of their lives.
When the
women start to face middle age, after many years apart, they will be brought
together again by a letter they each receive. They are asked to return to Camp
Birchwood to face their dreams, their failures and their long-lost friendship.
Each woman has faced many challenges, loved and lost, succeed and failed. Can
one week at camp restore their faith in friendship and in themselves? Will these women choose to forgive the past,
or turn and walk away?
Viola
Shipman with her brilliant writing style takes us on a journey we will not soon
forget. We can find ourselves in these women, and the struggles they faced as
teenagers and adults. The story is humorous in places and yet heartbreaking in
others. I absolutely adored the book and had a hard time putting it down. It is
the perfect beach read for the summer. My thanks to Harlequin, Viola Shipman
and Netgalley for an advanced reader copy. My review is unbiased and entirely
my own.
