Book Review - Double Shot



I read this book because Sharon loved it. I had never even heard of this author before but apparently she is fairly prolific. This book is about a group of 4 couples who form a tight knit group and refer to themselves as 'The Castaways'. They all live somewhere in Nantucket. They go on fabulous vacations together. They end up having affairs within the group. Just so you know, this is why I don't have friends. Anyway, one of the couples ends up dead in a tragic accident. The rest of the book is about unravelling the supposed mystery of their deaths. It is a pretty disappointing ending to a fairly decent book.



I couldn't finish this book. It's about a mom, her sister and her two daughters. One daughter breaks off her engagement and then her former fiance dies in a tragic accident. This author is big on the tragic accident. All four gals head to Tuckernuck island to the family's summer house to heal...or something. I found that by page 65 I just did not care about any of these people. Not even the hunky island caretaker interested me. If you read it, lemme know how it ends but mostly I really don't care.
