Another perfect Summer read, 

The writing and the telling of the story is a little flat but I sat with a glass of wine soaking up the sun so I was happy with a book in my hand

I loved the premise of this book - the idea of staying in lots of different houses, by the water, for a whole summer sounds fabulous, right? Dana's first few 'stays' were brilliant but things seem to go from bad to worse, leaving her in all kinds of weird and wonderful predicaments. Shore House Slumming is one of those books to read on the beach - it's really easy reading and should certainly leave you with a smile on your face. However, there is a sense of there being just a little too much going on. I think had the author toned that down a little bit, and added more depth of character, it would have been a better read. I wasn't totally sold on the ending, either. I think it concluded too quickly - I wanted to get a true sense of how Dana really felt at the end of such an exciting summer. After all, she'd certainly been through a lot!
