Second Time Around by Beth Kendrick was a book recommended to me. I really enjoyed it. It is about a group of women who were all English majors at the same college in New York. After graduation they meet at one of the woman's family home each Fourth of July weekend. They all talk about how they wish they were all doing something else with their careers and often talk about how maybe English wasn't the best major to have. They inherit $250,000. each and have a second chance at doing what they really want. They end up testing other things, some are happy and some not so much.
I loved and could relate to each of the characters, I could easily see myself being friends with these women. It is a story of love and loss, finding new beginnings and moving on with life. It would make a great movie as opposed to all the old movies they are now remaking :)
Beth Kendrick is another new author I have found this summer and will definitely look up some other books by her to read.
A great quick read, read it in a day.
