Malibu Rising Summary

“Malibu Rising: A Novel” is a good book that you can read online or download to read it later. Malibu: August 1983. It’s the day of Nina Riva’s annual end-of-summer party, and anticipation is at a fever pitch. Everyone wants to be around the famous Rivas: Nina, the talented surfer and supermodel; brothers Jay and Hud, one a championship surfer, the other a renowned photographer; and their adored baby sister, Kit. Together the siblings are a source of fascination in Malibu and the world over—especially as the offspring of the legendary singer Mick Riva. The only person not looking forward to the party of the year is Nina herself, who never wanted to be the center of attention, and who has also just been very publicly abandoned by her pro tennis player husband. Oh, and maybe Hud—because it is long past time for him to confess something to the brother from whom he’s been inseparable since birth. Jay, on the other hand, is counting the minutes until nightfall, when the girl he can’t stop thinking about promised she’ll be there. And Kit has a couple secrets of her own—including a guest she invited without consulting anyone. By midnight the party will be completely out of control. By morning, the Riva mansion will have gone up in flames. But before that first spark in the early hours before dawn, the alcohol will flow,

Brief Summary Malibu Rising by Taylor Jenkins Reid

This was the first work of Reid’s which I have read, being aware that she has been highly successful coming off the critical acclaim of 2017’s Evelyn Hugo and 2019’s Daisy Jones. First impressions are everything and when you stumble across such acclaim, it becomes inevitable to ask: what is the it-factor? That quality that makes an author be noticed and admirable in writing talent?You could arguably say that there is only one it-factor. If there is only one factor, then TJR has it. In one word, it is: voice.Reid has one of the most authoritative storytelling voices. And that authority allows her to achieve that one thing that I obsess over and value disproportionate to the tastes and opinions of other people: perfect pacing – or at least 9.9/10 type of pacing. Debating whether a novel is well-paced or too slow and sluggish is something I treat like a crusade when I pick up a book. It can have the best and most well-developed characters, the most interesting setting and plot premise, but if it moves like a snail or a cheetah then I will not want it. It will not be something that holds my attention.
