From the author of Must Love Dogs comes another sparkling romantic comedy about a relationship-challenged single woman, her quirky-to-put-it-mildly extended family, and te summer the shark movie came to town. Life's a bit of a beach these days for Ginger Walsh, who's single at forty-one and living back home in the family FROG (Finished Room Over Garage), who's hoping for a more fulfilling life as a sea glass artist, but instead is babysitting her sister's kids. Toss in a dumpster-picking father, a Kama Sutra T-shirt wearing mother, a movie crew come to town with a very cute gaffer, an on-again-off-again glassblower boyfriend, plus a couple of Red Hat realtors, and hilarity ensues. The perfect summer read, Life's a Beach is a warm, witty, and wise look at what it takes to move forward at any stage in life.
Another free book saved for airplane reading. Insubstantial and shallow. The heroine is more annoying than anything else, apparently unable to make up her mind about anything. I've already forgotten most of the details. Meh.
