But then the smallest mistake triggers a series of devastating events. Suddenly, in a desperate fight for survival, the women battle the elements, the threat of modern-day piracy, and their own frailties.

Mitchard never disappoints

I have read all of Mitchard's books. I read a books in most every genre, as I am an avid reader with a wide array of interests, yet I am rather choosy. There are so many good books to be read, I do not want to waste time ( or money) on badly written books.

I no longer bother to read the book description, or review of a book by Mitchard. They can never do her justice in any case. Somehow they all come out making the story sound less than it is.

The characters in Still Summer ( as in all of Mitchard's novels) are so rich, the story captivating, that you will find it hard to put this book down. A cruise that is meant to be a little bit of paradise for the four women in the story ends up being anything but.

The storm at sea, and the personal storms within the lives of these women combine to make a story that is compelling and extraordinary.

read it.

Then pick up another of her books and read it too!

Stick with the original

Interestibg adventure of former high school women friends who decide to rent a sailing ship for a cruise in the Carribean. They are challenged by memories of their past; attacked by pirates; & surviving a danagerous storm

A Book You Can't Put Down

Looking for a really fascinating story that will keep you on the edge of your seat? This is it! As usual, Jacqueline Mitchard has come up with with a wonderful cast of characters that she describes in such detail that you feel you know them. Four 40-ish women who were the best of friends in high school (calling themselves "The Godmothers") decide to have a little reunion after one of them is widowed. They charter a yacht in the Caribbean, complete with a crew of two, for a week to just relax, get some sun, and talk--perhaps shop a little on an island or two. It turns out to be more than any of them bargained for, with pirates, murder, starvation, deception--you name it! Each one's character is tested to the nth degree with some surprising plot twists. This is not great literature, but it is more than just "chick lit." I loved this book.

Ocean voyage turns deadly

I really enjoyed this book for many reasons. First, I know some things about sailing and was able to follow the descriptions of the boat, her sailing, lines in the rudder (who hasn't had this?)and got caught up in the excitement of being on the open water. Secondly, I enjoyed the different characters and their personality developments along the way. And thirdly, I enjoyed the suspense of the action at sea.

This book isn't perfect but it's a fun read. I didn't want to put it down once I got into the actual story on the boat and the happenings started happening quickly.

I recommend it for those who enjoy a quick paced story and are willing to overlook the technical flaws.
