“The Summer Girls is more than just a beautifully written, moving portrayal of three sisters finding themselves and each other after years of separation. It’s also an important book that deals head-on with significant issues so skillfully woven into the narrative that I often stopped to consider the import of what I’d just read. If you’re a dedicated environmentalist, this book is a must-read. If you’re just someone who enjoys a good story, you’ll get that, too, and much more.”
