“Waiting on” Wednesday is hosted weekly by Jill at Breaking the Spine and highlights upcoming books we can’t wait to own.
(From EasyWord)Dorothea Benton Frank takes readers on an emotional journey deep into the heart of her beloved South Carolina Lowcountry. In Porch Lights, she conjures the magic and mystery in the wild shores, misty dunes, gentle salt breezes, and rainbow sunsets of the enchanted Sullivan’s Island, where three generations of a family will discover the indelible power of love. Interweaving unexpected pleasures, stories of swashbuckling pirates and a enigmatic writer named Edgar Allan Poe, with the bonds of family, the heart’s resilience, the thrill of self-discovery, the strength of love, Porch Lights is a wondrous achievement, infused with beauty and charm, from this acclaimed, bestselling writer.
I love Dorothea Benton Frank, Porch Lights is due out June 12, 2012 which is perfect. I think she makes some great summer reading.
What new book are you waiting on?
With its ‘gentle salt breezes’ this really does sound like the perfect summer read! I will look out for your review!
