Summary

"Bess Codman has returned to her family's Nantucket compound, Cliff House, for the first time in years. Her great-grandparents built Cliff House a century before, but due to erosion, the once-grand home will soon fall into the sea. Though she's purposefully avoided the island, Bess must now pack up the house and deal with her mother, a notorious rabble-rouser, who refuses to leave. The Book of Summer unravels the power and secrets of Cliff House as told through the voices of Ruby Packard, a bright-eyed, idealistic newlywed on the eve of WWII, the home's definitive guestbook, and Bess herself. Bess's grandmother always said it was a house of women, and by the last day of the last summer at Cliff House, Bess will understand the truth of her grandmother's words in ways she never contemplated."--, Provided by publisher
