Christmas at the Nantucket Restaurant is a "feel good" story about three sisters (and Paul Taylor, their chef), who inherit "Mimi's Place" from their grandmother who stipulated that they run it together for one year before deciding what to do with it. Mandy, Emma and Jill with Paul, Emma's old flame and Bill, Jill's husband all found themselves appropriate jobs running Mimi's Place over Christmas. The holiday traditions on Nantucket, the good deeds for, by and with their patrons and neighbors, and the delicious menus mentioned made for a prosperous Mimi's Place and a festive, enjoyable, fun Christmas read!
As is my summer indulgence, this is another psychological thriller about friendships that go awry. It was another twisty, gripping tale.- rather dark, though. Caution: some explicit scenes that I thought were unnecessary.
This is an eye opening book. I knew so very little about Vietnam. Thank you to all the men and women that served! The heroism of the combat nurses that served was unbelievable. The America they came home to and the unwelcomeness they were treated with is a story that had to be told. This was a powerful read.
