PRAISE FOR BIG SUMMER:
"Sexy and satisfying. . . Observant, self-aware, and very
funny, Big Summer will delight Jennifer Weiner's many fans
and could be just the absorbing take-me-away read so many of us
need right now." --USA Today
"Big Summer by Jennifer Weiner will make you rethink your old
friendships, big time. This summer-lovin' novel tells the
story of two friends who have lost touch, but get reconnected when
one is about to get married. The twists and turns to come can be
so #relatable, and really tug at your heartstrings. It's worth the
read." --Elite Daily
"This tender novel explores the boundaries of female
friendship, not to mention the beautiful mansions and charming
dunes of Cape Cod." --Good Housekeeping
"Weiner is beloved for her rich, heartfelt stories--and her
new book is no exception." --Women's World
"Part dissection of female friendships, part murder mystery, part
social-media tutorial, part love story and--the best of them
all--part portrait of an overweight, under-confident striver.
Daphne is an endearing creation: funny, plucky, willing to
acknowledge certain critical lapses in judgment and eminently
worthy of the love that she is certain will never come her way."
--The Wall Street Journal
"Everything you'd hope to find in a beach read: complicated
female friendships, unhappy rich people, a hardworking heroine with
an eye for fashion, and an Instagram-worthy setting for an
over-the-top wedding on Cape Cod." --The Philadelphia Inquirer
"It's deliciously fun: frothy entertainment with surprising
depth. Big Summer is big fun, and then some. It's
empowering and surprising--a reminder to put down the phone and
enjoy each moment for what it is, rather than what it could look
like on Instagram." --The Washington Post
"The perfect beach read . . . A funny and tender examination
of female friendship in all of its messy glory."--PopSugar
"A new story perfect for summer... Weiner's lighthearted,
moving tale takes readers on a journey that explores the
complexities of female friendship." --The Hollywood Reporter
"It's the beach read to end all beach reads."--Entertainment
Weekly
"Weiner is deft at plumbing the depths of female friendship
and developing characters readers will care about. This highly
recommended book will appeal not only to the author's fans but
also to a new audience looking for a fresh take on women's
fiction." --Library Journal (starred)
"Weiner's story of female friendships (after Mrs.
Everything) mixes a splash of romance, a dash of humor, and a
pinch of mystery to create a deliciously bloody poolside cocktail.
Weiner's surprising tale is hard to put down." --Publishers
Weekly
"If you love Jennifer Weiner, you'll love this one. And if
you're a newbie, start here." --Kirkus Reviews (starred)
