I love a Hilderbrand novel in the summer. Nothing screams summer beach read quite like a trip to Nantucket but unfortunately this book fell a little flat for me. I found it slow and harder to get through than others. The Five-Star Weekend follows Hollis, a food/cooking blogger, who has recently lost her husband arrives in Nantucket to host a group of her friends for a weekend retreat at her house. These women are from each stage in her life but the newest woman, Gigi, is someone Hollis has never met even met in person. The story follows Hollis and all her friends during this weekend. To me, it just seemed rather boring and not much was happening. The end was better when the drama picked up some but overall just kinda eh for me.
