Swan Song: It is funny that my first Elin Hilderbrand book on Nantucket was her last. The story was good and took me back to the island. It didn’t make me feel like I needed to read her other 26(!) books about Nantucket however. Same As It Ever Was: I’ve read several books this year about motherhood and how the time with young children is so challenging. This was no where near the top of that category. Just fine. Black Dudley: A fun, classic British murder mystery that takes place in a country estate. Cliffs: Surprised at all the press for this one, because I did not enjoy it. Felt like a slog, story wasn’t that compelling, and tried to do too much. Wives Like Us: A frothy story about rich wives in the British countryside that I devoured in a few days. Definitely not great literature, but a great escape nonetheless.
