I am spending too much time with this book but it is so good. Cece is married but has this obsessive need to be with Joan. Cece says it's to make sure Joan is ok...Joan...who drinks and has secrets and goes off with men...but Cece's obsession is getting really weird! This book is big! Texas oil money, designer clothes, nannies, maids...it's a big old Texas big money kind of book!
And I am finally done!
It is another dreary weird 52 degree day here on the East Coast!
I can't even remember what it's like to sit out on the deck. Our deck furniture isn't even out yet! No flowers have been planted! It's a very weird spring!
We see little glints of sun...we get all excited...and then it's gone and it's gloomy again!
Even my girls are depressed!
We feel very gloomy here!
We need flowers and sun and heat!
Up next...I think I thought this was going to be a beach book...but it's about Anton Chekhov and a lost manuscript. I may be way out of my comfort zone here...sigh!
Hugs,
Patty
It's been pretty warm here but the next 2 days are only supposed to be in the 60s. Odd weather, indeed.
ReplyDeleteI can't even imagine feeling warm...I am freezing right now!
ReplyDeleteIt has been dreary and CHILLY here. Perfect excuse to stay in and read, right?!
ReplyDeleteTotally!
DeleteHmm, your weather does sound weird....and so does that book. But I'm a little curious....
ReplyDeleteThe Summer Guest wasn't for me!
DeleteIt's been pretty much the same story here... still no flowers or patio furniture. Boo! This book sounds excellent though. Thanks for a great review on goodreads.
ReplyDeleteThank you! It was awesome!
DeleteThe After Party sounds wonderfully juicy :)
ReplyDeleteI wore my down jacket and hat on my morning walk today...
I believe it!
DeleteWe are finally cooled down here in the east bay. The past couple of days have been 90's. I'm so grateful we have a ceiling fan in our bedroom but our girls suffer so I need to bug the husband to get them those Dyson fans.
ReplyDeleteWe have those fans in the guest rooms...they are amazing!
