danadoesbooks 's review for:

The Girls of Summer by Katie Bishop
dark mysterious medium-paced
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

Thank you St. Martin's Press and NetGalley for the eARC of The Girls of Summer!  All opinions in this review are my own.

While I loved the setting and usage of time to hide secrets, the secrets that were hidden just made me sad.  I thought this book would be more mysterious but you are able to pick up on what is happening way before the main character does.  It's heartbreaking to see her fall back to it years later.  Even though I didn't love The Girls of Summer, I would be curious to read the author's next book.
