24: Quentins by Maeve Binchy
I haven't read her in awhile and though i didn't think i'd read this before, parts of it are familiar. It could be that i've read it before, it could just be that her books are much the same, but also a lot of her characters and even references to their storylines appear in many of her books so it could just be that. It's about a young woman who gets involved with a married man, completely duped by him and finds out he's a financial scammer. Meanwhile she's helping friends work on a documentary about a local restaurant, Quintens so you get the story of that, plus the people that work and dine there regularly. It's pretty much typical Maeve but I do like her books for the most part.
Hurricane Earl is still expected in some form. Now they're saying it *could* hit land a bit west of the province but they really can't be sure. In any case, we'll have a stormy day probably Saturday. The grocery stores are already insane with people stocking up for a seige. Most of us really don't need much. An ice pack to keep the freezer cool, bread, juice, water, batteries and stuff to make sandwiches which you can keep cool in a picnic cooler with another ice pack if you have to.
