That Old Cape Magic

That Old Cape Magic by Richard Russo was the first book I read from BEA, and it was great.  During two different weddings at Cape Cod, a man and his wife reflect on where they've been and where they are going.  Russo's characters are always interesting and well developed, and Griffin and Joy are no exception, along with their daughter and various family members.  It's a great summer reading book (though it comes out in August, sorry), not to long or complicated, but with a great narrative.  Sorry, I read most of this book on a plane after 4 days in New York, and except for the end, most of it's a blur.
