Fiction. Literature. HTML:

A mother and daughter escape to coastal Maine to find healing in the wake of heartbreaking loss in a poignant novel by the author of All Our Summers.

The journey to Yorktide, Maine, was always a happy one for Frieda and Aaron Braithwaite and their two daughters. Frieda loves her mother's old farmhouse, and the girls have grown closer there, sharing a bedroom and spinning stories into the night. But that was beforeâ??when tragedy was something that happened to other families.

Since the car crash that claimed the lives of her husband and their younger daughter, Frieda has struggled emotionally and financially. Bella, now seventeen, is withdrawn and wary, and Frieda fears losing her too.

At her mother's urging, Frieda decides to return to Yorktide with Bella for the summer. Bella gets a job in a local shop, and little by little edges her way back into the world. But it's the unexpected connections they makeâ??with a former schoolmate, a troubled teenage girl, and Frieda's estranged fatherâ??that will spur them to find healing amid bittersweet memories, and discover if their bond is strong enough to guide them back to hope once more.

This was very much what I call a "fluffy" book. Very, very fluffy. It's sweet almost to the point of saccharine. The story itself was good, enough to keep me reading. I like season driven, small town beach reads.

But the plot wasn't too compelling. I didn't find myself getting as emotionally invested as I would have thought I might. The segues between characters and plot lines where a bit rough, with random details thrown into places where they sort of fit, but not really. The writing and especially the inner dialogue of the characters is so stiff and formal. It got to be grating after a while.

The book does have some important messages, and is a nice reflection on how familes grow and change when life hits them hard. ( )
