Nothing But Blue Skies – Thomas McGuane
Nothing But Blue Skies by Thomas McGuane is one of those books you live in and which you don’t want to end.
Set in Montana in the 1990s, it’s a sad story of a middle-age man disintegrating after his wife leaves him. He neglects his businesses, occasionally creating havoc as his despair increases. Sometimes, crude and very funny, I didn’t want to leave Frank and his struggles.
Wonderfully written and with terrific dialogue, this is probably a middle-aged man’s book. Highly recommended.

You can spend too much time reading!
Ten books in a single month is too many. The poor weather was partly to blame but even though there were some terrific reads, ten really is too many. I need to get out more and hopefully July’s blog postings will reflect this. Watch this space!

The Innocent Man – John Grisham
The Innocent Man by John Grisham is the 500-page, true story of an injustice in a small American town.Detailing an appalling justice system and how it failed the flawed Ron Williamson, it’s a truly shocking story.
Well written, thorough and detailed, it shows up the many failed aspects of the American legal system. Highly recommended.
