Another winner from Tracy Brogan about the charming town of Bell Harbor! I listened to this as an audiobook and I felt like parts of it were almost like stand-up comedy as the jokes were funny and the narrator had the perfect pitch. During the first chapter, main character Evie was likening birthdays to Pap Smears with presents and I buckled in for a wild ride lol. The story wasn't anything new but the way that each character is drawn with the best kind of brushstroke so that you feel like you live in the town is very enjoyable. The sex toy party was probably one of my favorite scenes-highly recommended if you want a light and funny read. Loved Tyler, too!
Want a good beach book??? The Best Medicine is a great read--summer or winter. Charming characters and snappy dialogue, especially the female lead's inner dialogue. A well educated, financially secure older woman falls for a younger, less educated but wonderful man. The author manages to explore these issues without overkill. In addition the fringe characters are wonderfully fleshed out and each could have their own book. And I am looking forward to reading everyone of them.
Another Tracy Brogan fun summer read.
