Started before from a sample to my Kindle, because I had not read this author. Did not take, but know a few sites that I enjoy the whole book, one more than I love my Kindle, and I was not disappointed. It was especially nice if they had really explored the characters a happy ending, and I liked the epilogue tied everything neatly. Will definitely read more of the author. Rating: 5.4
It was easy to read with some depth. Four women selected to spend 30 days on this island elite Tuckernuck, where only the houses were. Women with big names WASP: Birdie and girls, chess and Tate restricted India to cure her aunt on the island and compassion. Birdie’s new range after 30 years Grant, lack of confidence divorced and thinks it’s an honor if their daughters his efforts to cook or to estimate maternity know. India is a society, the power of art and who survived the suicide of her husband, sculptor. Chess is the perfect and beautiful girl who has successfully called her fiance, but has a big secret. And do Tate’s large computer genius who is looking for his first novel sexuelle.Hilderbrand how to develop between the characters and turn extreme personalities. It makes good use of the rich, can buy Anita, a man and a material object can, but not ownership of the exclusive Tuckernuck. Tuckernuck is extreme, too. The houses have little electricity, hot water and food must be navigated in the newspapers. Living in this environment is a rare symbol of social status, where “life is good” is the password between the owners of other property elite. Women regardless of status, to languish for men who is very sad and degrading. These are the talented women who are often jealous of each other, also mother to daughter, while another felt happiness with a man so it is a credible beach with a lid, which is stupid to read incompatible with history. Rating: 5.4
The first book that I read by Hilderbrand. Can ask. Spent much time on Nantucket, and I felt like I was back again. Read it. You will not be disappointed. Can not wait to read another. Rating: 5.5

Mysteriously, chess suddenly calls the wedding, leaving his job, and cut all his hair (Britney Spears). Birdie decides it would be good for both of them go to their homes on the island of Tuckernuck. Before departure, the sister of chess Tate charges, and his sisters Birdie calls from India for information. The two pairs of sisters, one month on the island in a house from a generator, without running hot water. Her only company is the caretaker, Barrett, who brings food, ice cream, wine, and every day. Every woman spends the most time of the month his relationship with his questions as indépendante.J “I thought that the island was a notch above other Hilderbrand novels that I read. They went out of business as usual, was so beautiful, and had new problems for these women. divorce, death to cope, suicide, complicated relationships and loss are all present in the lives of these women. I found it strange that this month, there was very little sympathy for women. In most cases, they have their problems, they maintained almost until the end. But I think it’s a good story with a happy ending. Rating: 5.4
