Chapter 21 Summary: “Stone Alley”

In town, Brooke feels disappointed when Tatum runs off with the excuse of an errand and Hollis follows her. Dru-Ann leaves the group to go shopping. Brooke assumed the women would be together all weekend, so she brightens when Gigi she wants to get to know Brooke better. Gigi leads Brooke to an independent bookstore and introduces Brooke to her favorite authors. Brooke doesn’t read and remembers a negative experience with a book club she joined years prior. She joined the book club for social purposes but left feeling incompetent. Brooke chooses a lighter beach read and feels slighted when Gigi insists on buying Brooke two other books with more serious literary acclaim.

Next, Brooke and Gigi head to a boutique where Brooke shops for a Nantucket Reds skirt. Gigi helps her match the skirt with a sweater, and she compliments her appearance. Brooke relishes Gigi’s praise, enjoying the building of friendship. Brooke and Gigi leave the shop, and Electra spots Brooke, calling to her from down the street. Brooke leads Gigi away in a speedwalk down a cobblestone street called Stone Alley. They head to a cafe.
