So Many Amazing Books...

Take this one...takes place just after WWII...two cousins...two dysfunctional relationships with their husbands...it is one of those books that I love from its opening pages. One couple heading off to LA...the other sitting at 21 in NYC and all they can afford for dinner are two martinis, a bowl of olives, and a bowl of celery.

My kind of dinner!
I will finish this one today...it's another yummy summer book! With lots of bite to it!


Don't you love this cover?

    That sounds like my kind of dinner as well, but I'd forgo the bowl of celery for a second bowl of olives! lol The book sounds wonderful to me.

    Love the cover...love the story. Sounds good to me with two martinis, and a bowl of olives...not too shabby to have at the 'world famous' 21 club in NYC. That was a well known restaurant, where movie stars used to dine; if I remember correctly reading about it!
    I would love to get this book...my kind of story:D

    I hadn't heard of this book, Patty, but it does look great. I am really fascinated by the WWII time period.

    I want to read this one, but it's gotten some mixed reviews.

    BTW... I don't think you'd have a problem with that olive meal. Would you? LOL.
