I’ve read so many wonderful books this summer. Though not my favorite, a very good book was The Summer I Met Jack. It is also historical fiction and well written. Hamilton was fantastic!
@Lloyd even more disturbing is the recent news of the playwrite, who wrote about Sergei Magnitsky, being found dead 6 weeks after her director husband was found dead.
