Pineapple Street is Jenny Jackson's debut and primarily follows three women: Darley, Sasha and Georgiana, who were either born into or recently joined the Stockton family (multi-pov). The plot is character-driven and follows the sisters as they navigate motherhood, class and privilege, all themes the book aims to tackle. 

At times it felt as though I was reading Gossip Girl... it's hard to put into words, but a part of me does not care about rich people problems, so it did take me longer than normal to read; however, Jackson's writing kept me engaged. 

I think because the book is so ring-fenced in terms of no real plot other than just following the sisters, it made it hard to get into. However, you may like the 'no plot, just vibes' going on so this book may very well be for you.

Thank you to NetGalley, Jenny Jackson and the publishers: Random House UK, Cornerstone, and Hutchinson Heinemann for an ARC in exchange for my honest review.
