[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm reading The Sea Wife by Amity Gaige about a married couple who ditch their suburban life and take their young kids on a year long sailing voyage in an effort to save their marriage.

For nonfiction I'm reading Revolutionary Summer by Joseph Ellis. It's about the summer of 1776 and how the military campaign and the political ideas in the Continental Congress played off each other to bring about the American Revolution. Part of my 250 reading. [/quote]
PP, I hope you see this—how are you enjoying The Sea Wife? I’m looking for a breezy beachy read, and the premise of this actually sounds intriguing! [/quote]

I'm only about a third in to The Sea Wife, but I'm liking it. It's told through the wife's POV alternating with the husband's ship log. It's one of those where you know something bad has happened but you aren't sure quite what yet. A mix of a study of a marriage and the telling of the actual voyage. I think it would be a good beach read, but it's a little sadder than a "breezy beachy read". At least I think it's headed that direction. [/quote]
Thanks so much for replying! I’m taking your recommendation and downloaded it for my upcoming vacation! [/quote]
