Barb says, "I am reading Sea Stories by William H. McRaven which is about his career in Special Operations."
Mary Kay says, "I'm reading Second Chance at Sunshine Inn by Amy Clipston. It is about a girl who has inherited an Inn with a guy she does not know. A close family friend passed away and leaves it to her and the guy who's has been working as caretaker of the Inn for 2 years. They each received 50% and she wants to sell and he doesn't."
Anita says, "I'm currently reading The Family Upstairs by Lisa Jewell. I chose this book because I read None of This is True and liked it so much, I wanted to read something else by the same author."
Stacy says "I am reading The Lake Escape by Jamie Day." It's about three friends that grew up going to a lake in the summer-- they've continued this tradition as adults. One summer, one goes missing."
