The Quinn family is back in the fourth and final installment of the Winter Street series. Bart Quinn is home from his harrowing experience in Afghanistan and is trying to adjust to life back on Nantucket. Ava is settling into life in the city with her boyfriend, Potter. And Patrick is settling back into life with his family after his time served. Everything seems to be back on track for the Quinn children, except all of them are struggling with the news that their father is dying of cancer. The upcoming holidays should be joyous with Bart being safe at home, except the thought of future holidays without Kelly overshadows everything. Will the Quinn family be able to truly celebrate Christmas ever again?
I think that I forgot to blog last year's Winter Street book, but I know that I read it! As a devoted fan of the Quinn family, this year's installment was bittersweet. I was thrilled that Bart was home safely. Jennifer was getting her life together and Ava had moved on. However, Kelly's cancer was heartbreaking. There were also several familiar faces from Hilderbrand's 2015 Summer novel, The Rumor. Grace Panick, her husband Eddie, and their daughter Allegra all have big roles in Winter Solstice. Especially since Allegra and Bart start dating. The author did a great job of wrapping up all of the lingering storylines and even though I struggled with being happy with all of them. - Click here for spoilers.
Bottom line - I have spent four holiday seasons with the Quinn family. It has been a great four years and I have enjoyed visiting Elin Hilderbrand's Nantucket during the winter. The Quinn family have been a nice addition to my holiday traditions and I will miss them!
