Length: ~10 hours.
Narrator: Paige Harbison.
Genre: Women’s Fiction
From The Publisher:
When Babe—the complicated, magnetic matriarch of their teenage summers—dies, four estranged friends return to sleepy Mercy Island, a storm-swept stretch of coastal Georgia, summoned by the reading of her will.
Didion arrives at the timeworn pink house to find the friends she never thought she’d see again—along with the tensions, attractions, and unfinished business that once bound them together and broke them apart.
What should be a brief weekend of small talk quickly unravels when they wake up and discover…it’s Saturday. Again. And again. And again.
Trapped in a time loop with no end and no instructions, they’re forced to confront the betrayals, breakups, and buried truths that shattered them all those years ago. Because maybe, just maybe, an endless weekend is exactly what they all need to save their own lives.
Why I Can’t Wait to Read Destination Funeral:
I’ve enjoyed another book by this author, and the synopsis for this one immediately caught my interest. The hint of magical realism is especially appealing, and I’m eager to see how these friends navigate and resolve their challenges.
