This is such a good read about three women and life. It covers two sisters, Sarah and Hannah, and their aunt, Maddie. They’re all in different stages of their lives, going through different struggles. While also supporting each other. I most relate to Sarah, who is a stay-at-home mom trying to find herself again. Her husband, Tom, was a real jerk, but Maddie had the best advice. They were also transitioning after losing their mom. It was a good show of how grief and coming to terms with the new stage of life can lead to good changes.

The Seaside Sisters is, no questions asked, a beach/vacation read that offers a light and easy reading experience. The novel delivers on its promise of romance and chick lit, making it a delightful choice for fans of those genres. It's a great book to read to recover from a heavier book, or before beginning a more profound read.
For me however, there wasn’t character development, which made it challenging to become fully immersed in the narrative.
Would I recommend it? If you are looking for a pleasant read and nothing to deep, it is perfect.
Thank you to @stmartinspress and @netgalley for the opportunity to read and review this novel

Thank you to Net Galley and MacMillan Audio for the advanced copy of this audiobook. It was a simple quick summer read real life story. Hannah and Sarah are the sister who recently lost their mom to lung cancer. Hannah comes home to the Cape from Manhattan for the summer to regroup and focus on her next rom-com that she is writing. The narrator does a good job of distinguishing between the characters as the story is told from multiple point of views. Put this book on your summer read list for a story about family, struggles and joys. It comes out June 4, 2024.

Hmmm this was under the romance category on NetGalley, but I think it’s primarily woman’s fiction than romance. There's definitely some romance discussions and couples going through some bumps, but not your typical romance recipe.
With that said, I still enjoyed listening to the audiobook. The narrator was fantastic, and i loved the tone of her voice. It was very soothing. The storylines were intriguing and I wanted to know what happens! Even though this was a traditional romance novel, it was still predictable like a true romance novel, which is what i do enjoy. I like knowing what’a going to happen. And I always love a HEA
