She's Up To No Good - Book Review



Jenna is getting a divorce and is in a funk. She is back home with her parents and not sure how to move forward. When she volunteers to accompany her grandmother Evelyn on a trip back to her home town, she has no idea what she is in for.

As the two women travel, Evelyn tells Jenna the story of when she was a young girl, a girl in love with a boy who was forbidden. As their journey continues, so does the story. When they arrive, Evelyn is on a mission, one she will not share with Jenna. While Evelyn is out and about, she appoints a handsome young man named Joe to be Jenna’s tour guide. Once again, Evelyn has an ulterior motive as this young man is also her first love Tony’s great nephew. The two women embark on their own separate journeys, with secrets being revealed, lost loves being found and a new bond forever formed between a grandmother and granddaughter.

This novel by Sara Goodman Confino has to be one of my favourites of the year. It was such a well written novel that tied the past to the present seamlessly and just warmed my heart page by page. I loved the characters of Evelyn and Jenna and did not want their story to end. This is the first novel I have read by Sara, but it will not be my last as I adore her writing style and character development. My heartfelt thanks to Get Red PR for my advanced copy in exchange for my honest review. This is one you will want to pack in your beach bag this summer.


Sara Goodman Confino teaches high school English and journalism in Montgomery County, Maryland, where she lives with her husband, two sons, and miniature schnauzer, Sandy. When she’s not writing or working out, she can be found on the beach or at a Bruce Springsteen show, sometimes even dancing onstage. For more information visit www.saraconfino.com.
