The Midcoast

It feels good to finish reading a book purely for pleasure. I pretty much plowed through The Midcoast by Adam White during my winter break this year. I rated it 4-stars which is substantially better than the 1-star vacation I’m currently eating my way through. What is it about cold weather and comfort food?

This was an easy read, recommended on Goodreads, that attracted my attention because of the  coastal Maine setting. Knowing how much Mem and Andrew love the Portland area, and having spent some time there this summer visiting them, it was fun to immerse myself in a place, similar to but not as familiar to me, as Cape Cod. I'm not a huge mystery fan either, but the plot of this story moved along and the characters kept me wanting to learn the outcome of their tragic lives.
