Welcome to Litsy!

This is the second book of Simonson‘s that I‘ve read with my book club—& though I liked this more than THE SUMMER BEFORE THE WAR, I still didn‘t love this slow-paced novel. Set just after WWI, the book centers mostly around Constance, visiting the seaside for the summer season as the caretaker of her passed mother‘s wealthier best friend‘s mother, Mrs.Fog. Constance needs to figure out her next steps but the final party spoiled the romance for me!

Craving the feeling of lazy beach days and warm breezes? 🌴🌊

Boardwalk Summer is ⭐5-star read that has it all—vivid characters, captivating plot twists, and a storyline that will leave you longing for endless summer nights.☀️

This is a light historical fiction set in England in the years just after WWI. Women are facing the hard facts that as the men come home, they are losing jobs and misogyny is once again alive and well. People seem to ignore the fact that women need to eat and some do not have husbands or family to support them. The book also looks at racism, snobbery and includes some romance. The characters are varied and really fun (I loved Mrs. Fog). 4/5 !

Lovely story.
