First Book Selection - Summer Sisters, by Judy Blume


This is the innagural posting of the Literary Ladies Monthly Book Club. The first email went out today, sent to us by our dedicated leader, Kiki to remind us all that we only have 28 days left to read our first selection.

We are all looking forward to getting started with our first book, Summer Sisters by Judy Blume, choosen by fellow clubber Miss T . While some of the ladies have already read this book it is the perfect summer read, a page turner brimming with sex, intregue and summer romance.

Synopsis:
Summer Sisters is a coming-of-age novel about two friends, Caitlin Somers and Victoria "Vix" Leonard, who spend summers together as teenagers. The girls are polar opposites, Caitlin being beautiful, lively and popular while Vix is a shy but intellectual wallflower. As the years progress the girls become closer and closer but soon find their friendship strained.
