Hadassa Review: One ‘Last Summer in the Catskills? 

 

“Episodes of intergenerational disconnect contrasted with unshakeable family bonds make Last Summer at the Golden Hotel a great choice for fans of Schitt’s Creek and feel-good family dramedies.”
–Shelf Awareness

“With lots of laughs, as well as a few tears, Elyssa Friedland’s Last Summer at the Golden Hotel is a family drama that is full of heart, on every single page. Perfect for anyone with nostalgia either for the movie Dirty Dancing, or for the place and time of its setting, The Catskills in the 1960s, this novel tells an engaging story of family, friends, business, progress, change, tradition, secrets, and so much more.”
–The Nerd Daily

“The per­fect upbeat nov­el to reach for when life seems dif­fi­cult and confusing.”
–Jewish Book Council

“Written with Friedland’s signature wit and sharp dialogue, Last Summer at the Golden Hotel is an incisive novel that touches on family legacies, nostalgia, and multigenerational dynamics. Readers not content with armchair immersion will want to book their Catskill getaway immediately.”
–Booklist

“Breezy and charming, this is great fun.”
–Publishers Weekly

“A high-spirited party of a book.”
–Kirkus

“Simply a delight”
–Alma, 8 Jewish Books We Can’t Wait to Read This May

The Intermission 

Watch Elyssa on Fox5 talking The Intermission.

“Intelligent commercial fiction… The snappy dialogue makes this an effortless page-turner, almost a movie treatment more than a novel.” —The Wall Street Journal

“Friedland craftily divulges how a relationship-turned-marriage-built-on-lies can turn from bad to worse over the course of just six months…Expertly paced and eerily realistic, this novel will make readers think twice about the line between deception and mystery in any relationship.” —Booklist

“Friedland insightfully dissects motives, lies, and love in this engrossing deconstruction of a bad marriage.” —Publishers Weekly

“A multifaceted look at the difficulties and rewards of marriage.” —Kirkus
