Pretty Things
Save A Tree - Buy Used at Second Sale Books
By Janelle Brown
One woman from easily identifiable difficult circumstances and another from seemingly indulged, privileged circumstances are at one point briefly connected and then much later cross paths again but only one of them recalls their brief shared past. There is mystery and intrigue and buried resentments and misunderstandings. There is classic analysis of the often-ignored reality that everyone struggles despite outward appearances. Best of all, it is set in Lake Tahoe, primarily from Tahoe City down the West Shore. Brown does a great job giving the setting its due!
