Wanting more to the story

Wish it was longer and finished out the kids stories. It left more to know

I loved the Summer of 69, but 79...not so much

This is short catch up of what has happened to the characters from Summer Of 69. It was interesting, but forgettable.

not what I expected

this story seems to reverse all plans and character development that was made by the end of Summer of '69. it seems like it would have been possible to expand on these characters' stories without demolishing the character development from the previous book. For example, we were led to believe that Angus was on a path to healing and change and then 9 years in he completely backslides? Maybe more context or additional backstory would have helped this feel less abrupt?

A quick follow up to Summer of '69

It was a nice and quick follow up to the Summer of '69, giving an update on all the characters and what they're up to which was neat but it was so short. I would have honestly preferred to not have an update at all and leave my mind wondering how they all turned out. OR...if this book had been longer and more in depth detail for the characters, I would've liked that. Still it was a fun book to listen to.

Nice ending to the first book

Fun way to revisit the family from Summer of 69. It’s less of a story and more of an update, tying the story up in a nice, clean little bow. It’s a quick, easy listen and enjoyable if yo e read the first one.

love it

I could read about these characters forever. I love this family like I really know them.

Too short

I hope there will be a sequel, still in ‘79. This little book keeps you hanging! Great storylines, and as always, so well written!

Good but not as great as the Summer of 69

The story was interesting and I looked forward to reading because the charge in the previous book were great. While it was good, it was not as interesting.

Closure

Good follow up to the Original book. Wraps up everything so we get the inside scoop on the sisters.

Too short

Not worth the Audible credit.
Could have expanded the stories on the kids, it’s been 10 years.
