Set against the backdrop of the South Carolina shore is it a heart warming summer read.













#47 New York:the Novel (finished 10/10) This was a delightful read and I savored every minute of it. It is a history New York both the city and the state with an emphasis on the city from its early beginnings as a Native American settlement and Dutch settlement through the Revolutionary War, Civil War, various political and financial scandals and culminates with 9/11. It intermingles fictionalized characters with these events making these events more tangible.

My first book for the year was a Christmas present from my son. I am an avid fan of Sue Grafton and with great gusto I enjoyed her latest novel "X". Great character development set in 1980's California her sleuth Kinsey Milhonne solves a cold case when she tries to deliver some personal effects to the daughter of a woman who died in the 50's.
