This novel was excellent from the beginning page until the end. Caitlin, a wild child, invites Vix, who is more conservative and quiet, to Martha's Vineyard for the summer. Summer after summer the girls return to the vineyard and as a reader, you literally are apart of their growth into woman hood. They experience new things together, first love, development of their bodies, and even "The Power" which they use on one another.
The story opens in the present day, with a phone call from Caitlin asking, more like telling, Vix if she will be the Maid of Honor at her Wedding. Then the story goes back to Vix and Caitlin's summer days, and all the events leading up to Caitlin's Marriage.
As the two girls mature to woman hood their differences tear them apart, especially when it comes to dating boys. Caitlin knows she is intimidating, and she uses that to her advantage. Vix; however, is the complete opposite.
Caitlin becomes too wrapped up in herself, and selfishly ruins Vix's sixteenth birthday party. Vix, devastated and hear-broken, leaves to live on her own, breaking off her friendship with Caitlin. Or so she wishes.
Summer Sisters was a hard book to put down. The characters were so real and I associated with a lot of the story. I felt apart of the characters lives as they grew up together, experiencing all the new things life brought them. The plot kept me interested throughout the entire book.
It's a story numerous teenage girls, and older women can relate too. It leaves a reader crying and laughing all at the same time.
