I am taking a break from Asian Lit to read Lindsey's book club's April pick, 'The Beach House' by Jane Green. This is the story of a 65 year old woman who is living a carefree life in her beach house, until she realizes that the money she has to live on for the rest of her life is running out. She decides to rent out rooms in her beach house. She begins to feel bonds with her house mates and feels the house is alive until an unexpected visitor turns all their lives upside down.
I really know nothing about this book and just copied that out of the cover sleeve.

Haha...I love your last sentence. I'm starting it today as well.
ReplyDeleteGotta say, so far there's a lot of infidelity. Not my fave in a book, but it's quick reading so far. We'll see.
ReplyDeleteI noticed that too. Does no one have good marriages now days?
ReplyDeleteI finished The Beach House this morning. I liked even though I'm not really an enjoyer of "chic lit". I loved how the time on the island gave the different people time to reflect on their lives and realize what is important to them. Overall this book made me really just want to have a vacation on the beach and renovate a house. Two things I hope to be doing very soon. ;)
