Vintage, the debut novel by Susan Gloss, is a predictable, feel good story about women. Set in a vintage clothing store in Madison, Wisconsin, the book is about finding friendship and new beginnings. The theme of second chances repeats throughout the book in the resale of vintage clothing and in the stories of the women. The book proceeds predictably to a predictable ending. The book makes for an easy, light vacation read.

What a sweet book with three fantastic main characters, all at different points in life and all at crossroads where they must make big decisions. Violet owns a vintage clothing store and each chapter starts with an item that she has in the store or that is on its way in and has something to do with the action in that chapter - I loved this, it made the book feel uniquely vintage! Amithi is an older Indian woman who is an empty nester and is trying to find what really makes her happy at this moment in life. Finally, there is April and she is pregnant and very young and must figure out the path that she wants to choose.
