I actually liked the past that she had with Cass and some of the other characters, because it made her seem more realistic (at least to some of the people who I knew in high school) and made her feel more dimensional. What I loved is that she was flawed from the start, or at least she felt that way. But what will it mean for Gwen’s now life? Sparks fly and secret histories unspool as Gwen spends a gorgeous, restless summer struggling to come to terms with what she thought was true-about the place she lives, the people she loves, and even herself-and figure out what really is.įans of Huntley Fitzpatrick’s ‘My Life Next Door’ will not be disappointed with this summer beach read!! Gwen dreams of getting off the island, and a summer job working for one of the elderly residents might just be her ticket to the good life. He’s a rich kid from across the bridge in Stony Bay, and she hails from a family of fishermen and housecleaners to her island’s summer population. The eagerly anticipated follow-up to My Life Next Door is a magnetic, push-me-pull-me summer romance for fans of Sarah Dessen and Jenny Han.ġ7-year-old Gwen Castle’s Biggest Mistake Ever, Cassidy Somers, is slumming it as a yard boy on her Nantucket-esque island this summer.
