Our July Pick: Down with the Shipmans by Meg Mitchell Moore

Three sisters. A beloved beach house on the New Hampshire coast. And a bombshell announcement that threatens to upend everything. When the Shipman sisters reunite for what they think is a quiet family gathering, they quickly find themselves navigating old wounds, personal crises, and one very charismatic rescue dog.

Warm, witty, and utterly transportive, Down with the Shipmans is the perfect July read — a beachy family drama packed with juicy stakes and heart. With glowing praise from Elin Hilderbrand and The New York Times, this is exactly the kind of novel that makes summer feel complete. Come ready to dish.
