I finished two books this week. The Beautiful People by Michelle Gable, about Palm Beach society in the early 60s. I enjoyed it because I grew up in Ft. Lauderdale at the time. In fact, when my mom went into labor with me, she had to call a taxi to take her to the hospital. My grandma and aunt, who were supposed to be with her instead went on a sightseeing trip to see JFK’s compound. Oh boy, my dad was pissed 😡!

I also finished Three by Valerie Perrin. Excellent book, I would give it ten stars if I could.

Have a great week everyone!
