Summer Loving, having a blast
Just finished “Girlfriend Material” by Melissa Kantor. I liked it… but I did not love everything about the ending… I did like the relationships between Kate and her mom and sister (though I felt the relationship between her and her dad was a bit weak).
I have read bits of Kantor’s other stuff. I really liked what I read of “If I Have a Wicked Stepmother, Where’s My Prince?” and I would say I really liked about 75% of this one. I still liked the rest, but my hopes were higher than where Kantor took the novel.
Now with all that depressing review out of the way, who WOULDN’T want to to go Cape Cod (albeit with her mom who is taking a break from her dad) and be seen as the cool girl? It made me not look forward to 6 months of winter, but did make me long for summer nights and walking on the beach.
Definitely worth it to pick up because it WAS a fun time. I would be interested to get feedback on what you thought of the ending. See if you thought the same stuff was missing as I did… though maybe it is just because there is a sequel already in the works…..
