At sixty-something years old Angela Dunn has given up on finding much excitement in her life. She's got her half-blind dog, Gizmo, a crummy retail job, a tiny house, and no close friends or family to call on in her Kokomo, Indiana hometown. But when her brother, Tony, calls from Florida with a house-sitting offer, Angela has to gear up all her courage to accept. What about the bugs? The alligators? Her fear of hurricanes? Not knowing what else to do, she sells her few belongings, loads the dog into her SUV, and soon, there she is: living in a cute-as-a-bug house trailer, being romanced by a handsome, gray-haired Italian, making friends with wild women, and trying very hard to let go of the past and find the joy in life once more.

Egret Cove by Margaret Nava,
By
This review is from: Egret Cove (Paperback)
Overall, an interesting story, but the main character is not as well-developed as I would like to see. There are many typos in the book I read, a library edition published by Thorndike Chives. The typos detract from the enjoyment of reading.

Egret Cove,
By Vera Lockridge (Illinois) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Egret Cove (Paperback)
I took the book "Egret Cove" with me on vacation to Florida in Jan. I loved the book! It's funny-it's witty and the characters are wonderful. Angela and her friends became my friends. The book takes place in Forida, so as I was visiting in southern Forida at the time, I was able to relate to many of the places in the book. I cannot wait for the next book to be published!
