Summary: Summer Sisters Forever
Review: I really enjoyed this book. It delt with friendship, love, heartbreak, and family. The friendship between Vix and Caitlin reminded me of a frienship between me and my friend(only not as complicated). This book tells the story through many of the character's point of views(mostly Vix's but never Caitlin's). It was very easy to read. I didn't think the detailed description of the love scenes were necessary to this book, but other than that it was a great book.

Summary: I really enjoyed this book
Review: I really liked this book. It was very well-written and I liked the way it centered on the weird friendship between Vix and Caitlin. The eleventh hour surprise in the story concerning Bruce was interesting. The ending was a bit disappointing for me, but overall, an excellent book.

Summary: I was really disappointed
Review: Before I picked up this book, I had read great things about it, including praises for its sentiment and women-bonding issues. But after I read Summer Sisters, I'm sorry to say that I felt a sick pit in my stomach from the totally unnecessary excess of sexual content and testosterone-laden fantasies. On top of that, the female characters were not strong role models or even women I could relate to - and their bonds together were as weak as their characters.

Parents should be aware of the obscenity in this novel before allowing children under 15 to read it. I know the movies kids watch nowadays are horrid, but somehow reading about infidelity and adolescent sexuality through the minds of these characters can leave disturbing visions.

Summary: Vix and Cat
Review: Vix can't believe it! Cat, the most popular and pretty girl in class, is asking Vix to spend the summer with her at the Vineyard. What turns out to be an awkward beginning, turns into an incredible journey in the friendship of Vix and Cat, now bestfriends. This novel takes a close look into the lives of these two teens, including lusty affairs, betrayel, and an unexpected ending. For older readers, this will take you back to how you felt as a teen. For young readers in their teens, this is a book you can relate to. I was hooked from the first page, and finished the entire book in less than a week. I already recommended it to all my friends, give it a try.

Summary: Super Beach Read!
Review: I picked up this book at the beach after not reading a Judy Blume since childhood. What a fantastic, fast, easy, truly fun read! I was so sad to see it end after only one day's reading. I just could not put it down.

I definitely would recommend that you run, not walk, to read Summer Sisters if you haven't already.

Summary: Best book I have ever read!
Review: Summer Sisters is the best book I have ever read. I am 14 and I read it in one day I couldn't put it down. I was kind of suprised that Judy Blume could write such a great book, nothing like her books for younger people. I really enjoyed having multiple viewpoints from people so you could understand the whole story from every viewpoint. I could really relate to Vix, like I am sure a lot of young people can. It made me wish that I was in her situation and experiencing everything she did. One of my friends won't read this book becasue she thinks it is "innapropriate" but everyone has had experiences similar to that if they admit is or not. YOu should definetly buy this book you will want to read it more than once. I am going on my fifth.

Summary: How Could This Make the Bestsellers List?
Review: If you have nothing but time on your hands, and don't expect much from a book, I can see why you'd read this. I read about 150 pages and felt like I was reading a book for teens. You'd be better off reading "The Pilot's Wife", "Memoirs of a Geisha", or "Bridget Jones Diary." Save your money and your time on "Summer Sisters."

Summary: Summer Sisters
Review: ............................... Vix was a city girl. Never had seen the ocean, and definitely never planned on seeing it until that summer. When the new, most popular girl in school asked you to spend the summer with her in the Vinyard,you new things would change, forever. This book captures the events of a girl's life from young adolecence to a strong young woman. I would recommend this book to everyone of all ages, definitely a 5 star, two thumbs up book!

Review: READING REVIEW

I read the book Summer Sisters by Judy Blume. The book is very well written, although I wouldn't recommend it to younger readers. It contains lots of adult situations, and content. Although there were some questionable parts in this novel, the outcome was great. I thought the book was very in-depth, and it described the life of two best friends very well. The story spans twenty years of their lives, and you get to know the characters intimately. The main character's name is Victoria Leonard. People call her Vix for short. She is the quiet type, who is well read, and smart, although she comes from a middle class family who is often violent, and disrespectful to each other. She is astounded when the most popular girl in the school, Caitlyn Sommers, asks her to Martha's Vineyard for the summer. It was like a Cinderella story for Vix. She got to escape to a charming setting with a loving family. At the vineyard, they immediately became best friends or "summer sisters". The story tells of their trials and tribulations until they are through college. Throughout this time, Vix has become very distant from her family, and Caitlyn's family becomes her own. The story has a few interesting twists and turns, and a surprise ending. I enjoyed the book immensely and on a scale of one to ten, (one being the lowest, ten being the highest) I would give this book an eight-and-a-half.
