Set sail for murder

Wednesday, May 22, 2013

The Summer We Read Gatsby by Danielle Ganek was a fun read. Two half-sisters are united at their dead aunt's house to settle the estate. It's in the Hamptons, and the story is about the parties, the social manners, the love connections that take place in the summer of 2008, Everyone is critiqued, from their style to their entertaiment engagements. A painting is stolen on the first night they give a party and this only adds the the wild and crazy summer they are having.  Made me want to read her first novel. Lulu Meets God and Doubts Him. A long way off from some of the thrillers I have been reading. I only hope she writes more.Witty and literate. Loved it.
