On Turpentine Lane by Elinor Lipman
2017
This is a fantastic "beach read." It was a nice break from the "heavy" psychological thrillers I've been reading! This book is light and funny romantic comedy with a little mystery. The plot is somewhat outrageous but achieving its goal to entertain the reader.
When Faith Frankle buys a house in her old neighborhood, she never imagined the mystery she would uncover. She wonders if anything in her life could go smoothly. She has a fiancé who went to find himself backpacking across the country and detailing his travels online. Then, she has a rather tame job at her alma mater writing thank you notes to generous alumni. Her quirky family offer comedic relief while the mystery In Turpentine Lane unravels.
This is the book for you if you are looking for a light humorous summer read.
