Book Description
A deliciously funny, remarkably poignant “beach read to end all beach reads” (Entertainment Weekly) about the power of friendship, the lure of frenemies, and the importance of making peace with yourself through all of life’s ups and downs—from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Good in Bed and Best Friends Forever. Six years after the fight that ended their friendship, Daphne Berg is shocked when Drue Cavanaugh walks back into her life, looking as lovely and successful as ever, with a massive favor to ask. Daphne hasn’t spoken one word to Drue in all this time—she doesn’t even hate-follow her ex-best friend on social media—so when Drue asks if she will be her maid-of-honor at the society wedding of the summer, Daphne is rightfully speechless. Drue was always the one who had everything—except the ability to hold onto friends. Meanwhile, Daphne’s no longer the same self-effacing sidekick she was back in high school. She’s built a life that she loves, including a growing career as a plus-size Instagram influencer. Letting glamorous, seductive Drue back into her life is risky, but it comes with an invitation to spend a weekend in a waterfront Cape Cod mansion. When Drue begs and pleads and dangles the prospect of cute single guys, Daphne finds herself powerless as ever to resist her friend’s siren song. A sparkling, “insightful page-turner” (Real Simple) about the complexities of female relationships, the pitfalls of living out loud and online, and the resilience of the human heart, Big Summer is a witty, moving story about family, friendship, and figuring out what matters most.

Book Description
Big Summer is a modern novel that is part murder mystery, part bildungsroman, or a coming-of-age story. It follows Daphne, the narrator, as she learns to truly love her plus-sized body. The reader is immersed in Daphne's experience as she deals with shame, low self-esteem, and the shocking murder of her former friend, the lovely Drue Cavanaugh. Big Summer criticizes social media's negative effects, the destructive nature of body norms, and the judgment of others in a world where in-person connections are avoided in favor of online relationships. Weiner uses plot twists to create tension, propel momentum, and question the characters' intentions in three parts. Please keep in mind that this study guide discusses potentially triggering topics such as body shaming, emotional abuse, and sexist language.
