Here's a good one to read this summer if you haven't read it already. This one I picked up from the shelf at a Rite Aid during a time when I was taking care of my father after he fell and broke a hip. You need a good book to get through that kind of trauma with a parent! Something that will get your mind off of yourself and into another world.
Enter Tuckernuck Island. It exists off the coast of Nantucket. "No phones, no television, no grocery store"... "a place without distractions". That's where this story takes place and by the time you finish reading this book you'll want to pack a light bag, but with plenty of groceries in the boot of your car, and head there yourself.
You will get caught up in the lives of a mother, a daughter, her sister and an aunt who all want to "escape their troubles". But enter some men on the scene and you know what trouble that can stir up, right? Don't worry, this is not a romance novel but a real good relationship story that brings lives and emotions together in a page turner that will get you through your own tough time or any time at all.
The Island is "the perfect getaway".
So get your fan blowing on you because it's hot on Tuckernuck Island where there's no AC but only the breeze off the ocean. Lemonade, anyone?
