"Cassie and Zoe Griffin were born just a year apart, but the sisters could not have been more different. Zoe, beautiful and charming, grew up with a burning desire for fame, making up for a lack of natural talent with hard work and determination. Cassie, though, had a gift. She was uncomfortable in her plus-sized body and preferred to be in the shadows, she was a musical prodigy. On the threshold of adulthood, the sisters are discovered by a record label and become the Griffin Sisters, a band that quickly skyrockets to fame, reaching the heights of pop stardom: MTV, VH1, the Billboard charts, and every marker of a dream come true. Cassie's musical gifts make her the voice of a generation and while the spotlight tests her spirit, it also opens her heart to possibilities for connection she has never considered. Zoe gets everything she thought she wanted: international fame and the paparazzi, the couture-and the man-that go with it. But twenty years later, everything has changed. Cassie lives in seclusion in Alaska. Zoe has abandoned her music dreams for suburban motherhood in New Jersey. The Griffin Sisters are long gone, and the devil's bargain of celebrity has exacted a high price that drives the sisters apart and nearly destroys them both. And yet Zoe's teenage daughter Cherry has inherited her family's talent and stage presence, and will stop at nothing to achieve the very dream of pop stardom her mother has warned her against-opening the wounds of their shared history in the process. Both sisters must face the consequences of choices from the past: the ones they made and the ones the music industry made for them. Can the mistakes of the past be redeemed, and can broken bonds be repaired?"--

"A shimmering story about music, motherhood, sisterhood and the dreams we chase." - Woman's World
"Weiner is at her best when she's writing about sisters, and her latest (after The Breakaway, 2023) features a memorable pair. A story about the ways those closest to us can hurt us the most deeply, the destructive power of guilt, and the rough road to forgiveness. This is an irresistible, multigenerational tale from a master of her craft. A compelling family drama [that] fans will gobble up." - Booklist (starred review)
"Former journalist-turned-blockbuster novelist Jennifer Weiner is deft at making readers fall in love with her emotional characters." - Philadelphia Inquirer
"Irresistible. [Weiner] breathes new life into the love triangle trope and offers a nuanced view of sisterhood's complexities. [Her] fans will be delighted." - Publishers Weekly
"Weiner excels at capturing the complex relationships among sisters, mothers, and daughters, and the novel's nonlinear structure and multiple viewpoints add both nuance and interest. An excellent addition to the current crop of Y2K pop culture-themed novels; this will satisfy Weiner's many fans." - Library Journal
"Weiner deftly explores the pop landscape of the early 2000s. Zoe and Cassie are both realistic and flawed characters, each with their own challenges. There's a compelling and dramatic love triangle here, too, but the true love story is between two sisters and their music. A heartfelt look at sisterhood, forgiveness, and the courage it takes to follow your dreams." - Kirkus Reviews
"The Breakaway is sexy and suspenseful and so much fun, even as it asks us to imagine lives unconstrained by convention or the Supreme Court. It's the lobster roll you get with mayo and melted butter-because why choose? To quote Mary Oliver grossly out of context, 'Let the soft animal of your body love what it loves,' whether it's noodles or romance or even the uncertainty that comes with getting to decide who we want to be." - New York Times
"[F]eel-good family drama...A strong showing by Weiner." - Association of Jewish Libraries
"Weiner is the undisputed queen of the fun yet thoughtful poolside read" - Vogue
"A fun, smart, and a powerful reminder to follow your own path." - The Skimm on The Breakaway
"This is a winning combination of a light read with serious emotional depth, the very mix Weiner's many fans have come to expect from her. Weiner's annual summer release is a welcome (and highly anticipated) treat for readers of relatable relationship fiction." - Booklist, starred review, on The Breakaway
"Sexy and satisfying. . . Observant, self-aware, and very funny, Big Summer will delight Jennifer Weiner's many fans and could be just the absorbing take-me-away read so many of us need right now." - USA Today, on Big Summer
"It's the beach read to end all beach reads." - Entertainment Weekly, on Big Summer
"It's deliciously fun: frothy entertainment with surprising depth. Big Summer is big fun, and then some. It's empowering and surprising-a reminder to put down the phone and enjoy each moment for what it is, rather than what it could look like on Instagram." - The Washington Post, on Big Summer
