All Together Now

 I quickly read All Together Now by Matthew Norman. This story is about a group of 4 high school prep students. They call themselves the prep school rejects because three of them got expelled from high school the day before graduation and the fourth one walked out in solidarity. Robbie is the fourth one and he would have been the valedictorian of the class. Now he is 35, a billionaire, and planning a Memorial Day weekend for his high school friends on Fenwick Island in Delaware. I was just in Delaware in December so it was fun to read about the crab shacks, waves, and sandy beaches. Robbie knows his friends are not keeping in touch like they used to. Wade always wanted to be a writer. He sold one book but his second book is going well. He has always been a huge Beatles fan and this book is about the people mentioned in Beatle songs. He has a chapter about Eleanor Rigby and a chapter about Lucy. Cat is an associate producer of a talk show in Los Angeles but her life isn't going well. Blair is married with twins and she seems happy but she really isn't. Robbie wants to fix all their problems. Robbie spares no expense and they have a wild weekend in Delaware where all the secrets come out. Over the weekend, the four friends from high school learn that it is important to spend time with the people in your life who truly matter.
