Silver Girl

A Novel

Meredith Martin Delinn just lost everything: her friends, her homes, her social standing — because her husband Freddy cheated rich investors out of billions of dollars.

Desperate and facing homelessness, Meredith receives a call from her old best friend, Constance Flute. Connie's had recent worries of her own, and the two depart for a summer on Nantucket in an attempt to heal. But the island can't offer complete escape, and they're plagued by new and old troubles alike. When Connie's brother Toby — Meredith's high school boyfriend — arrives, Meredith must reconcile the differences between the life she is leading and the life she could have had.

Set against the backdrop of a Nantucket summer, Elin Hilderbrand delivers a suspenseful story of the power of friendship, the pull of love, and the beauty of forgiveness.

“Clearly the Madoff family inspired this plot, but Hilderbrand gives it her own sun-kissed, optimistic spin — which is not to say it’s all Rosa rugosa, just that there’s a silver lining to the ugliest of circumstances.” —Elisabeth Egan, New York Times

Not my favorite

It took several chapters for me to really get into this book. After that it seemed to flow better.

Relaxing Beach Listen

Just wanted something not complicated to read on vacation to the beach. Kind of already new what the book was going to be about. Since the book was about the beach it was nice. Listening to the sounds of the beach and listing to this book it was great it all fit perfectly.

Loved it!

I couldn’t turn this off! Finished the book in 2 days and was sad when it ended!

Liked it

I really liked the story but the narrator bothered me a bit. I really like Erin Bennett, the narrator EH has used in her more recent books.

Silver Girl is a Great Find

I thoroughly enjoyed listening to this novel. It is a story about all the different types of love you have in your life (romantic, friendship, family) and all the ups and downs that come with it. To me, it really delved deep into the characters’ emotions. And, I thought the ending was exactly what it should be—happy without being terribly unrealistic. If you’re looking for something a little bit more meaningful than your average romance novel, this may be the audiobook you’re looking for.
The narration wasn’t the best I’ve ever heard, but I thought it was still pretty good.
