The Seduction of Water...

I just finished listening to The Seduction of Water by Carol Goodman. I recommend it, especially if you are like me and will be listening to the story, rather than reading it.

Iris Greenfeder is an almost everything. She's almost a published writer, she's almost a college professor and she's almost married to her boyfriend of ten years, Jack. Iris's mother, who died when she was ten, wrote two books and no one can find the third. The book is told in first person and is a terrific summer read.

The book is romantic, as the Irish tales Iris's mother, Kay, used to tell her are woven into the story, as well as suspensefull. Will she find her mother's third manuscript, was there one at all? And, how about the hotel she lived in and her parents jointly ran. Will it survive it's fate as the current oweners are thinking of selling it?
