The Tuttle family is back for another summer at Pebble Beach, but now it’s time for three new cousins to rock the social scene. Jessica, Greer, and Lara are all members of the extended Tuttle family, but they couldn’t be more different. Athletically competitive Jessica is the only Pebble Beach veteran out of these three girls, and she’s determined to make this summer absolutely perfect, which includes plenty of cousin bonding time, beach parties, and, of course, hot guys. For somewhat coldhearte More...

Let’s just say off the bat that I don’t like this type of book. I prefer to read literature that’s slightly more intellectual than describing the boys as “Abercrombie-hot” and throwing a bunch of classy brand names to describe a girl’s wardrobe. SUMMER GIRLS has both of those and more. The characters are all “types”: the sporty-hot chick, the glam-hot chick, the offbeat-hot chick, the playboy-hot guy, the sporty-hot guy, the wholesome-boy-next-door-hot guy…have I been clear enough yet?

Saying that I hated this book would be the understatement of the year. I had yet to give a one star review this year. At least until I read this book. There is always that one book that you have read that stops you from giving any other book one star because at least it was not as bad as that one that you wished could go unnamed. Summer Girls is that book for me. I will now compare every book I dislike to this one and because it will inevitably be better it will be saved with a two star rating.

I chose this book on accednt really I took by accident and then read the first chapter and really liked. The novel "Summer Girls" by Hailey Abbott is about 3 cousins who spend the summer with the rest of their family. They meet boys who they think are the one and fall in love one turns out to be realted to one of them another is a jerk and another is really sweet. I really like the author style of writing it is all over the place and it is a cool way of writing. Their point of veiw is on and off More...

Filled with cliches and stereotypes, this book is borderline offensive This book was not hipster or cool, it seemed like a pathetic attempt at guessing what teenage girls would like...
Jessica is a sporty, atheletic type... but she deosn't want to be anymore. She's into boys and she
wants to snag one for herself. She's the most clueless out of the bunch, but the most down to earth one as well. She is only a miniscule less annoying than the other two....
Greer is a rich, snobby, New York B*@#$. She More...

I loved how this was sort of a follow up to the Summer Boys series. In this book, Jessi, the younger cousin of the Tuttle cousins from the Summer Boys series, Ella, Jamie, Kelsi, and Beth, has a summer of her own. But she puts too much pressure on having "the perfect summer" like her cousins before her, but she soon learns that those summers wern't so perfect.

First of all I think it's fine for step cousins to like each other cause they are only related be marriage right?? Well the book was really good! It seems realistic that it could happen. Family spends a whole summer together and there's lots of drama and parties... I could see this totally happening. I loved the characters but sad that they didn't end up with the guys in this book... I guess I'm going to have to wait and see...

I loved this book because the girls were very relatable. You have the athletic good girl who chases after the bad boy, the quirky artsy girl who just wants to have a stable family and the pretty mean girl who wants the one boy on Pebble Beach who doesnt want her.

I read this book in two days. I was an easy read, but I really enjoyed it. The author put a lot of personality into the book and any girl would like it! If your looking for a book to read by the pool this summer, you should consider this one.

Hailey Abbott's books are pure fluffity fluffity fluff fluff fluff and I love it! A welcome respite from this cold RI summer (so far) since these books are full of sunshine and hotness.

Average teen novel about 3 cousins shariing a beach house and trying to hook up with boys. Breezy, light, quick teen read.

This book made me picture a movie that i have seen where the girls have a summer fling with boys and it has to deal drama,boys of course, family and fun. I can say it was a fun book to read, really easy to read also if you want something fun and fast. I will definetly be reading the other books Hailey Abbott has written.

I really really like the Summer Boys/ Summer Girls series. They're light, fun, easy summer reads.
After reading the Summer Boys series first, it was weird to return to Pebble Beach with the younger cousins...I miss reading about Ella, Beth, Kelsi, and Jamie.
But still, awesome summer read.
