I can't believe July is over and we are already speeding through August. This year is flying by!
I read three books this month. None of them were really standouts. Just normal easy beach reads.
The Beach House by Jane Green: This book was a little confusing to start off with. It's one of those with multiple characters and stories but they all collide and connect in the end. The basis is a lady has a beach house and she is running out of money so she rents it out as a b&b. The multiple characters (and all their issues) come and stay for the summer. Lots of drama, blooming relationships and a happy ending. It was a quick, cute summer read.
The Vow by Dana Wilkerson and the Carpenters: I picked this one up as I had seen the movie and was interested in the story behind it. I felt like the writing was a little uninteresting and very much just a this is what happened style. It was interesting to get a behind the scenes real look at this couple but I felt like it could have had more personality and heart.
Folly Beach by Dorothea Franklin: This was my second book by Ms. Franklin and again it was a nice, easy beach read. Very much a southern author she sticks to her roots. This book was set in South Carolina and it followed a woman whose husband just died and left her with nothing. She heads down south and rents a house that once belonged to a famous southern author and his wife. She sets off on a journey of self discovery through learning about the wife. It was an interesting read with the past and present ideas mingled together.
