Hi! We just got back from Maine, too, and I loved reading The Guest Book by Sarah Blake while there. It’s the best best book I’ve read all year! It’s set on a private island off Camden and centers around a family grappling with generational tragedy and money. I loved Sherman’s! I’m also reading Tom Lake....and I just finished Little Monsters. I found the beginning slow but Brodeur does such a wonderful job pulling the stories together that I loved it in the end! Another great Maine book btw is Haven Point!

Just finished A Very Typical Family by Sierra Godfrey in one day (audio). It's the Libby read of the month and I had no expectations - and loved it!
