Somewhere around three o'clock on August 11th I walked into Where the Sidewalk Ends in Chatham and achieved my goal of visiting fifty independent bookstores in my 50th year. No bells went off, no balloons were dropped but it felt good if for no other reason than because I realized there are a whole lot of people out there following their dreams of owning a bookstore. What does that mean for me? There's still plenty of time to pursue my own dream.
I loved Where the Sidewalk Ends. It's beautifully laid and the young women were wonderfully lovely.
I picked up The Engagements by J. Courtney Sullivan and The Orphans of Race Point by Patry Francis. (Race Point in Provincetown is one of my favorite beaches on the Cape. This book is going to the top of the pile.)
