The book had a good idea and started off strong in its depiction of a figure from history but as it progressed it seemed rushed even the ending.

Convenience Store Woman

This book is not surprising, but it is oddly comforting in how weird or main character is. She doesn't give a hoot about appearing normal to anyone else, but she sure makes me feel better about my social skills!

by Elin Hilderbrand

I enjoyed another beach classic by Elin Hilderbrand. This one followed a summer in 1969 of one family.

It was a good reminder there is always room for another chance.
