Summer Reading, 2005 - Page 2

The Hungry Ocean - Linda Greenlaw. This is Greenlaw's first book, written back when she was a swordfish boat captain running out of Gloucester, MA. Equally as entertaining as her Lobster Chronicles, but not nearly as funny as All Fishermen Are Liars.

That's it. The week passed in a couple of eye-blinks, but we had a great time revelling in print.
