THE ISLANDBY ELIN HILDERBRAND
ABOUT THE BOOK:
Birdie Cousins has planned a getaway with her daughter Chess on rustic, charming Tuckernuck Island off the coast of Nantucket, a chance to bond before Chess's upcoming marriage. Birdie's been through a difficult divorce herself, so she knows the big commitment that marriage entails. She's only recently dared to tiptoe back into the waters of romance.
When Chess abruptly breaks off the wedding and her fiancé shockingly dies in a rock climbing accident, it leaves Chess feeling guilty and deeply depressed. Birdie circles the wagons, convincing her younger daughter Tate, and her own sister India to join them on Tuckernuck for the month of July. Secrets and intrigue soon make their way to the surface, as Elin Hilderbrand once again weaves a masterful story of summer suspense.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR:
Elin Hilderbrand lives on Nantucket with her husband and their three young children. She grew up in Collegeville, Pennsylvania, and traveled extensively before settling on Nantucket, which has been the setting for her five previous novels. Hilderbrand is a graduate of Johns Hopkins University and the graduate fiction workshop at the University of Iowa.

This book sounds like it is a good mystery and suspense read. I would like to find out what happened to the boyfriend.

I would like to read her book barefoot, it sounds good.

The setting of this book, on an island, seems like it would be a great summer read!

I would really like to read Castaways, another Nantucket summer book by Elin. It also seemed to have an element of secrecy in it.
JHolden955(at)gmail(dot)com
I think the Island sounds good because of that suspense element and what a great locale for a summer read.
JHolden955(at)gmail(dot)com
I already entered the Hatchette Take me to the Beach giveaway and my first entry if #60. Thanks!

Love, Doubt & Loss... yeah, this sounds interesting ;-)
The word "secret" has always been a good word to get you interested in a novel.

by this author.

This book sounds like such a good summer read! It might be set at the beach, but it sounds like it has some substance and meat to the story, which makes it that much better to lose yourself in!
Thanks,
candc320@gmail.com
I, crazy enough, have not read any books by this author yet. Looking at her website, I think, besides this book, I would really like to try The Castaways. I have seen that book everywhere lately and it sounds very good.

This book sounds like it is a good mystery and suspense read. I find all too often that when tragedy hits someone they often try to blame themself for the tragedy. Thanks for hosting this mystery read.
