Extensive analysis of Taylor Jenkins ReidĀ“s book Malibu Rising, including a detailed summary of the chapters of the original book.

Original Book Plot:

To celebrate the end of the summer, four famous siblings throw an epic party. However, the family drama that ensues will change their lives forever over twenty-four hours.

August 1983, Malibu. Nina Riva's annual end-of-summer party is approaching, and excitement is building. Everyone wants to be around the famous Rivas: Nina, the talented surfer, and supermodel; brothers Jay and Hud, one a champion surfer and the other a well-known photographer; and Kit, the adored baby sister. The siblings, especially as the offspring of legendary singer Mick Riva, are a source of fascination in Malibu and around the world.

Nina, who has never wanted to be the center of attention and has recently been publicly abandoned by her pro tennis player husband, is the only one who isn't looking forward to the party of the year. Oh, and Hud, because it's long past time for him to confess something to the brother he's been inseparable from since birth.

Jay, on the other hand, is counting down the minutes until the girl he can't stop thinking about promises to be there at nightfall.

Kit, on the other hand, has a few secrets of her own, including a visitor she invited without informing anyone.

The party will be completely out of hand by midnight. The Riva mansion will be engulfed in flames by morning. The alcohol will flow, the music will play, and the loves and secrets that have shaped this family's generations will all rise to the surface before that first spark in the early hours of the morning.

Malibu Rising is a story about a family's one unforgettable night: the night they must choose what they will keep from the people who created them... and what they will leave behind.
