About this listen

Summer 1999: Sawyer is striving to make it in New York. Between her assistant job in publishing and her upcoming wedding, it feels like the perfect life could fall into place at any moment. There is only one problem: Sawyer's fiancé has been working longer hours . . . with an all-too-close female colleague, Kendra.

When Kendra's boyfriend, Nick, invites Sawyer to meet up and compare notes about their suspicions, the meeting goes awry. She finds Nick cocky and cynical, and he finds her anxious and overwhelming. But when Nick seeks out Sawyer to apologize, a friendship develops.

Over the summer, Sawyer and Nick start an unofficial ritual exploring New York City and they soon both begin to live for their Friday afternoons together.

But what happens once the summer is over?©2024 Suzanne Rindell (P)2024 Bonnier Books UK

Critic Reviews

In this pacey, emotional novel, Suzanne Rindell perfectly captures the essence of summer in New York City at the turn of the twenty-first century. With the wit and depth of all the best Nora Ephron movies, this love story is not to be missed (Jill Santopolo, New York Times bestselling author of The Light We Lost)

Summer Fridays is both a love letter to New York City and a nostalgic glimpse back to the cellphone-free nineties. In this absorbing novel about a pivotal summer of longing, betrayal, and the desire to feel connected, a young publishing assistant needs to decide if she will follow the path others expect of her or if she'll go after something-and someone-infinitely more fulfilling. A wonderfully satisfying read! (Amy Poeppel, author of The Sweet Spot)
I could not put down Suzanne Rindell's delightful romance, which brought me back, in the most charming way, to the 1990s. A sweet, nostalgic coming of age tale (Joanna Rakoff, bestselling author of My Salinger Year)
When publishing assistant Sawyer suspects her fiancé is cheating on her with Nick's girlfriend, the betrayal forges an unexpected connection. Exquisitely observed by Suzanne Rindell, Sawyer and Nick's forbidden romance blossoms over one unforgettable summer in a steamy New York City. Equal parts hopeful and heartbreaking, the outcome of this unique love story kept me guessing up to the very last page. Summer Fridays is the perfect way to spend your summer Fridays! (Georgia Clark, author of Island Time)
Absolute gut-wrenching heart-swooning storytelling perfection. I loved every subtle twist and turn of this book (Annabel Monaghan, bestselling author of Same Time Next Summer)
