I added that second part. You'd be amazed at what I've never read, and I may never read. Fine, if you want to read Debbie Macomber, but don't feel guilty for not having read her. Do you know how many years it was before I read my first Ed McBain?

Carol, There won't be a problem with skipping around in this one. The series is centered around the inn, and she introduces two guests and their stories. From the ending of this one, it appears that will be the pattern for the next as well. So, not too many characters to keep track of. Karen, I'll try to get back to 10 Beach Road. I do own it. Thanks, Rosemary! That's just what I like, a lighter book in the middle of the others.Lesahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12946133849271512083noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9995206.post-50708787844801984772012-08-21T10:06:29.257-05:002012-08-21T10:06:29.257-05:00I've read both her Cedar Cove

And I do remember her characters.<br /><br />I'll look out for this one - thanks Lesa.<br /><br />RosemaryRosemary Kayehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17284340669326721343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9995206.post-4162188214705045672012-08-21T07:21:27.679-05:002012-08-21T07:21:27.679-05:00Oh, you definitely can pick his one up, Kay.
