Since I'm really suppose to take it easy, something I dislike immensely, I decided to do some guilt-free reading.

When I told my book buddy, Karen, I had finished two books since breaking my neck she wrote, "There's always (usually) a flip side to bad news!" I so agree!
Neither of my reading choices was all puppies & rainbows- a genre I am usually drawn to. Yet, both introduced me to unique characters and scenarios. South of Broad transported me to one of my favorite cities- Charleston. I do love Pat Conroy and his ability to tell a fabulous tale.
The Ladies' Lending Library had some disturbing storylines but ultimately, it was the story of friendships and loving people for who they are.
