(suspect I didn't seriously start reading it until December 2023, and maybe downloaded it in October). The charming and rather educational sequel to The Lightning Conductor. Apparently also known as The Lightning Conductress, which I'm glad I read somewhere because I had been going to look for the latter title to read next.
This book is written in the form of letters from various main characters to certain friends and associates. It is helpful to have read The Lightning Conductor first but not necessary. It's set in various homes, hotels, scenic places, and roads from Long Island, NY, to Maine, with lots and lots of descriptive passages.
Charming and romantic, a welcome escape from the world IMO.
