Summer at Tiffany
Summer at Tiffany | Marjorie Hart
Hart has a genuine gift for conveying the texture of midcentury Manhattan. [She makes] the dilemmas of her own young life both compelling and contemporary. USA Today [A] glorious once upon a time fairytale come true.I loved every moment! Adriana Trigiani, author of Very Valentine A memoir acclaimed as reminiscent of The Best of Everything and Breakfast at Tiffanys (BookPage), Summer at Tiffany by Marjorie Hart is the true story of two best friends experiencing the time of their lives in New York City during the summer of 1945. The Cleveland Plain Dealer raves, Hart writes about that stylish summer with verve, recollecting with a touching purity a magical summer in Manhattan, seen through the eyes of two 21-year-olds, just as the end of World War II approached.

Mehso-so

This just wasn't for me. It's cute but these girls are naive and I don't know why they thought a book needed to happen. The only thing that made this ok imo was all the extra info that went into the group chat. And the cover. 😂

#Read2025 #MonthlyNonFiction2925

Finished today for #SundayBuddyRead I enjoyed this memoir-set in the summer of 1945 when the author & her best friend spend the summer in NYC. These Iowa University students become the first females to be pages at Tiffany & Co. It‘s a mostly light read about their experiences in the city & it was a good escape. Thanks to @TheBookHippie for the always wonderful hosting, discussions & research done along the way.🩵

TheBookHippie 🩵 it was a good one for May! 3d

This light memoir captures Hart‘s experience in NYC and at Tiffany during the summer of 1945. Filled with humor and sentiment, Hart shares hilarious (and potentially embarrassing) episodes as well as her hopes and dreams and college worries. Just the right book to read, with its fluffiness and nostalgic tone. #SundayBuddyRead

@AllDebooks #chatterday

I think I‘m going to recover from my shingles shot by reading a birthday month buddy read (tagged) and knitting. I was feeling great until 2am 😝 But a crummy night sleep is better than shingles.

Tagging @TheSpineView @dabbe @Eggs if you care to join 😊

BethM Feel better! 4w
JenReadsAlot Ugh but good call getting it! 4w
TheSpineView Thanks for the tag! I'll get on it! 4w

Eggs Thank you 🙏🏻 I hope you feel better soon 😔 4w
DogMomIrene Yeah, when the shingles vaccine knocked out my energy and seriously made my arm hurt, I thought the same… better to take acetaminophen now than suffer shingles later. 4w
peaKnit @DogMomIrene Yes! The arm pain has been a little surprising, it was hard to sleep without aggravating it for sure! And all over aches…but great excuse to relax today. :) 4w
Ruthiella My reaction to the shot was similar. You will feel better soon. ❤️ 4w
dabbe That shot is 😱! Take it easy today. 💚 4w
IriDas I had no idea the shot was so intense. I‘m almost of age to get it so I‘ll remember to have it done in a Friday. I hope you‘ll feel better soon. 4w
DogMomIrene @peaKnit If it helps, my achy reaction was more intense for the first dose. When I went back for the second, I was pleasantly surprised. Much less achy. Arm pain was minimal. So🤞🏼for you too! 3w
peaKnit @DogMomIrene that does help! Thank you! 3w

Getting ready for May‘s #sundaybuddyread I could inhale this book

Aims42 It‘s such a beautiful, charming book 🥰 I love hearing that you enjoyed it! 4w
mcctrish @Aims42 I hadn‘t even heard of it 🤯 thank god for Litsy 4w
Aims42 @mcctrish I read it before I was on Goodreads (and I‘ve been on Goodreads for 10+ years 😂), so I have no idea now where/how I stumbled upon it. I probably bought it for its cover 🤣 The cover artist did a great job though, I read it and loved it! 4w

mcctrish @Aims42 you can see I‘ve got it on kindle and it makes me sad not to see the Tiffany blue cover 😢 I should have gotten the colour version 4w
Scochrane26 I have this book & read it a long time ago. I probably also bought it for the cover & because I was interested in Tiffany‘s. 4w
Aims42 @mcctrish 🩵🩵🩵🩵🩵 4w
AmyG Charming is the perfect word. I, too, could inhale this one. @Aims42 @mcctrish 4w
mcctrish @Scochrane26 you should join us on Sunday 4w
mcctrish @AmyG it‘s always a double edged sword when the Sunday buddy reads are delightful - it‘s easy to read them but hard to stop 4w
kspenmoll You are getting me excited for this read- planning on reading it tomorrow-now I can‘t wait for morning! I am too tired on Friday nights to give the attention to #sundaybuddyread books that they need! 4w
mcctrish @kspenmoll I usually try to read on Thursday nights for Sunday - you are right about being too tired on Fridays and Saturdays get away from me - but today I had an extra prep at school and no duties at lunch so I read there ( I brought my kindle in my bag cuz I knew about the no duty so I was extra thrilled with the bonus prep) 4w
