Summerland by Elin Hilderbrand Book Summary

The "queen of the summer novel" explores the power of community, family, and honesty-and proves that even from the ashes of sorrow new love can take flight (Kirkus Reviews).

A warm June evening, a local tradition: the students of Nantucket High have gathered for a bonfire on the beach. What begins as a graduation night celebration ends in tragedy after a horrible car crash leaves the driver, Penny Alistair, dead, and her twin brother in a coma. The other passengers, Penny's boyfriend, Jake, and her friend Demeter, are physically unhurt--but the emotional damage is overwhelming. Questions linger about what happened before Penny took the wheel.

As summer unfolds, startling truths are revealed about the survivors and their parents, the secrets kept, promises broken, and hearts betrayed.

A must read. Elin Hilderbrand keeps your interest through out the book

Wonderful!. I would say that this is my favorite of the 3 I have read by this author. The characters were memorable and well-described. I loved it, and I had to keep reading! Great ending!!

Summer land. Wow, this was a book I couldn't put down. I love how she writes about Nantucket. I graduated from nantucket many moons ago. It was a great read! I love this author!!

I have read all of your books!. I think one is better than the next- you are a terrific author.

Summerland. This was a tedious read! I wold not recommend it.

Too long, too heavy. Love this author but not this book. Very long and so many heavy topics.

I loved this book!. Elin Hilderbrand made me fall in love with Nantucket in Summerland. The author has such a beautiful way with words. I grasped onto every detail... it was of those books that you read carefully and savor each page because you never want it to end. Also, each character was so developed that they became real to me. This was my first novel from this author and I'm looking forward to my next! I highly recommend this to adults and older women. Not so much a book for teens only because I think they are yearning for a bit more drama and romance than what this book entails. I loved it! I only wish there was a sequel!

Loved it!. As with all of Elin Hilderbrand's novels, this one owned me from page one. Living not too far away from Nantucket, I love the familiar places mentioned as well as the rich relationships among the characters. At the end of each novel I declare that one my favorite!

The best!!. Another amazing book by one of my favorite authors! I buy Hilderbrands books on the first day they are released! Such a great read. She does not disappoint!!

A great read. A truly captivating book,one of Elin’s very best. Great story.

Summer land. Loved all of her other books, but this seems to lack something. Halfway through and I could take it or leave it. Love reading about Nantucket, but am a little bored with this.

Hilderbrand's best work yet. If the kids are done with school for the year, it's time for a new book release from Nantuckett novelist Elin Hilderbrand. Summerland is her best work yet. A tragic car accident on graduation night leaves junior golden-girl Penny Alistair dead, her equally amazing twin Hobby in a coma, her boyfriend Jake relatively unharmed but devastated, and childhood friend Detemer unharmed but wracked with guilt that she tries to ease with alcohol. Told through multiple POVs of the teens and their parents, the reader is taken through the first hours, days, weeks, and months after the accident. Everyone is looking for a reason--someone to blame--but maybe there's no one to blame, or everyone is to blame. Maybe it doesn't matter and those involved need to find a way forward.

Eloquently written. Elin does a great job of bringing each character to life. I love how she fills in the gaps and gives us the perspective of each character in the same incident. Her use of detail is astonishing and my mouth watered several times at her accurate descriptions of Zoe's meals. However there are about 3 instances when she calls jake, Jordan by mistake and it's surprising that her editors did not pick up on this. This book makes me want to move to a small island, cook, sing and most importantly, be in love.

Summerland. I have read all of Hilderbrand's books, which I have thoroughly enjoyed. This was by far my least favorite. All the other books, I was unable to put down, this one, I had to force myself to finish. Very disappointing read.

Hard to finish. This book dragged on and on. Certainly not her best work.

Live. Could't put it down...

Fun but somewhat confusing. Liked the story but jumped around too much

Same old same old. Just the same skeleton, nothing new

Great Engaging Read. Captivating the whole way through! Love all of her books!

Boring!!!. I started this book months ago and just finished it a couple of days ago. It was one of the most boring and drawn out books that I have ever read!!! The characters were pathetic and way too much time dedicated to each one. Do not waste your money on this one!!!

Predictably delicious. Love the books by Hillebrand. I've come to associate them with summer vacation. This one doesn't disappoint!

Summerland. The story line was good but I felt that the book starting dragging in the middle and that it never picked up at the end.

A great read. A great summer read. One of her best.
