3.5 *
I decided to listen to this one on Audio after I found out Netflix is releasing the movie in September. It was my first Elin Hilderbrand novel and I enjoyed it! She is always referred to as, "The Queen of Beach Reads" and I'm told this is her first, "Beach/Mystery" novel.
This is a light mystery about a couple and their family who gather in Nantucket over the July 4th weekend for their upcoming wedding. Hours before the wedding a body is washed ashore. Is it connected to the wedding?
This story has several characters and their past and present situations will all be explored. I think it will make a good movie. Very "whodunnit." I loved the way it ended!

I read this several years ago and it must have worked well as a standalone. Don't even think I realized it was part of a series. Lol. 🤣

I’m glad you enjoyed this one. I keep saying I need to check out this author. I can’t believe I never have. Lovely review 💜💜
I always read the book before watching the movie too. I’m so glad you enjoyed it Tina and sounds like a fun movie premise. Great review. Happy watching!
Fabulous review, Tina. This was my favorite Elin book and so glad that you enjoyed it. I can't wait to see the Netflix movie. I did not realize that the movie will be released in September.
Fantastic review, Tina! 🤗 This is one Hilderbrand novel that I have yet to read. Although, it looks like I better subscribe to Netflix again because I know I will want to watch this movie. Lol!

As of late Netflix has sucked....hoping for some better ones coming out in the fall!
I didn’t know this was going to be a Netflix movie but I’m here for it. I’m not necessarily a huge fan of the author but I’ve enjoyed a few, including this book!Great review Tina!

Thanks Jan! I'm told it's going to be a limited series. I believe it's going to be released on September 5.
Always nice to read the original, or listen to it, before tackling the adaptation. Good review, Tina.
