Just done reading a book by David Baldacci. It’s been on my TBR list for almost two months before I picked it up again. I was distracted by other books and new authors.
This is quite different from the usual genre that Baldacci writes about. If you are used to the thrillers that he churns out, One Summer is a story of a family struggling with being together after the mother dies in a car accident. The pain of losing a wife, the adjustments one has to make having the kids around, the daily battle with longing and missing a much-loved family member. This is not as touching as the stories woven by Nicholas Sparks or Richard Paul Evans. It is a light read though.
This is my fifth read and Goodreads says I am three books ahead of schedule. I am still on the look out for classics. In the meantime, I’ll make do with historical fiction.
Are you on Goodreads? Did you join the challenge for this year?
