“THE LAST SUMMER AT CHELSEA BEACH is filled with loss, growing up, learning about life, and a “love” story.
THE LAST SUMMER AT CHELSEA BEACH had a lesson about the importance of family and the importance of following your heart.”

3.5 ⭐️ It was a very good read, I was quickly and easily immersed in the story. Some of the descriptions I thought overwrought at times, and just a tiny bit predictable, but not so much that it ruined the journey for me. A great summer read for sure!
Finally! After fitting in all kinds of books over this one - I'm cracking open The Last Summer at Chelsea Beach! Will get this one read as part of my Summer Reading that I planned out! We're getting closer to Fall so I better get cracking! 🌻>🍃🍁🍂
Fabulous! Taking place in the 1940's, the book's protagonist is a young, Jewish, Italian teenager who has escaped to America during the war. She finds acceptance and solace with a Catholic, Italian family from Philly who are her neighbors at the shore. The four brothers include Addie,and she soon learns that being part of a big family can hold dear memories and haunting episodes that one cannot escape--no matter how far one tries to run.
I think that once I finish Jane Steele, I will focus my reading on this pile. Your thoughts? ☺️
This was such a sweet and heartbreaking book. I loved the growth of the main character Addie. I especially love that is set during WWI I
