No, you know me. I haven't been to the beach yet. You may take that to mean I never will. I'm not crazy about sand and sun, so Adrian and I have done other things. I'll post again after I've downloaded pictures. If you want to see where we are look here. I'm redfaced because this place has a lot of books. We found Silva's The Defector. Remember how I thought it ended abruptly and was a little upset about that? Hummm, guess I fell asleep at the end because Eric didn't think it ended in Russia. Nope, it didn't. It actually had a very complete ending. Sigh.
The Help is a fabulous book. It's about the life of maids in Jackson, MS in the early 60's and their impact on the families they serve. It was great to listen to. Adrian and I are also listening to Nixonland. The beginning of Nixonland covers the same period of time as The Help. It's interesting listening to the two different perspectives. Even so, it's Chick Lit. Lovely, obnoxious people to hate and ever-suffering, kind people to love. Nothing really horrible happens to anyone and the two protagonists live happily-ever-after. Chick Lit. Love it.
