August 23rd "I just finished The English American by Alison Larkin which I absolutely loved! I have been doing a fair amount of reading this summer, but this is the first book that I’ve read in a while that I raced through and enjoyed absolutely every moment of. It is a very easy read with interesting, likable characters... I highly recommend this novel if you’re looking for some light, fun summer reading."

"Summer reading doesn't have to be fluff - it just has to be good... Besides offering interesting insights as to how others may see us, The English American has the virtues of a pleasing, fast-moving plot, believable characters (it's semi-autobiographical) and excellent writing by an author in search of her origins."
--Karen Hayman Long, Tampa Tribune
