It could just be because I’ve been checking out Flipbacks in all of their tiny cuteness with their almost nonexistent margins and lack of wasted space but this book seemed to be the opposite. The cover of the book is gorgeous with the beach view and including all the integral aspects of movie night but it’s the format on the inside that kept grabbing my attention. I just need to digress for a moment before I really start because it’s something I keep thinking about. We can sense that there is more going on than is stated but that information comes to us slowly throughout the book some early on and some not until quite late in the game. The prologue was from matriarch Lolly Weller’s point of view as we watched events of fifteen years ago – the events that set the scene for the book while retaining ambiguity. The Meryl Streep Movie Club is written in the third person but still from different perspectives. She is an award-winning actress with over 50 screen roles in movies of many genres that will evoke countless emotional reactions and this novel is a tribute to that talent. The debut novel of Mia March has recently been released, I am thinking that would make it perfectly timed for a northern hemisphere summer, which sums up the setting quite well.Īuthor Mia March is a big fan of Meryl Streep for her beauty, her grace, her talent and her range.
