Welcome back to the BBB Podcast! In Episode 45, we're diving into the nostalgic and heartwarming world of "Summer Fridays" by Suzanne Rindell—a story set in the late '90s filled with AOL chats, unexpected friendships, and the magic of New York City.
Shaya has chosen a simple mocktail of grapefruit juice and sparkling water, reminiscent of the Sea Breezes enjoyed in the book. Jenika paired a blueberry mint limonada, perfect for a refreshing summer Friday vibe.
In "Summer Fridays," we follow Sawyer, a twentysomething navigating life in New York City during the summer of 1999. As she juggles her publishing assistant job, dreams of becoming a writer, and preparations for her wedding, she faces a lonely summer while her fiancé spends more time at work with his close female colleague, Kendra.
Enter Nick, Kendra's boyfriend, who invites Sawyer to meet and discuss their suspicions. Although their initial meeting doesn't go well, Nick later reaches out online to apologize, sparking an unexpected friendship. Their summer Fridays turn into explorations of New York City, from hot dogs on the Staten Island Ferry to Sea Breezes in the East Village and swimming at Coney Island. Nick pushes Sawyer to be braver, while she helps him reveal his vulnerable side.
Join us as we discuss this summery novel-- pour yourself a refreshing mocktail or blueberry mint limonada, and let's get into "Summer Fridays"!
