Why read it?
1 author picked Summer Fridays as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I have a lot of nostalgia for the ‘90s, so it was great to read a novel set in New York City in 1999. It was deeply evocative of both time and place–I could feel the sweltering heat of the non-air-conditioned flat where Kendra spends her time waiting for her boyfriend to come home.
It was fun exploring a city I know and love through her eyes on her summer Fridays.
From Mia's list on bookish romance novels.
