George was awesome...the setting was beautiful...not a fan of Frankie
Format: Hardcover
I had to buy this book since One Golden Summer was amazing and stayed with me longer after I finished it.
In this book, the setting and descriptive scenery of their honeymoon destination and how it was woven into the story was the highlight. The romance took second place and was lackluster overall as I never really connected with why Frankie was such a good friend and George fell in love with her. The ending was just okay and I think the letters could have been better utilized in the story instead of dumped in at the end. The whale storyline was a footnote and distracted from the story. It could have been a few chapters shorter overall. I loved George and felt like he deserved better.
