'Sunrise on Half Moon Bay' wants to be a good summer read. It has many of the makings, but the repetitive dithering of one character and the repetitive conversations of the other got on my nerves. This is not a long book, but it's story was stretched out by it's repetitiveness. Perhaps it began it's life as a short story. 'Sunrise on Half Moon Bay' is not nearly as wonderful as the 'Sullivan Family' series but neither is it as bad as 'The View from Alameda Island'. The 'Sullivan Family' series is always intricate while 'Sunrise on Half Moon Bay' is simply simple, uncomplicated and unnecessarily tedious. 3 stars with a note: After I finished the book and wrote this review, I was reading the reviews on a well-known online bookseller. One in particular made me laugh: "I live in the Bay Area and have spent a lot of time in Half Moon Bay. I’ve never read a Robyn Carr story before. I borrowed the book on my Kindle because of its setting. This is the fictional story of two sisters. This is also fictional Half Moon Bay—there is no sunrise on this west facing beach, no pool, no movie theater. The story goes downhill from there. . ."
