That Old Cape Magic

Richard Russo of "Empire Falls" fame (great, great book and miniseries, btw) is back with "That Old Cape Magic". I really liked this one. It was unpredictable and realistic and didn't have a pat, happy ending. Life is too complicated for that and Russo is able to capture all the bittersweet goodness of the world: love and not love, friendships ending, watching children grow up and live lives of their own. I'll definitely be picking this one up again someday.
