I Love You Pat Conroy


I am deep into Pat Conroy's new book, South of Broad, and, again, I am practically rendered speechless with each page. His writing is pure craft.

I do not know where he gets his ideas for his characters. They are always unforgettable. I have laughed out loud and cried in the same paragraph. Each chapter is perfection.

If you have never read Pat Conroy, go out at once and get yourself a copy of this magnificent book. I never thought he could top Prince of Tides or Beach Music, my absolute favorites in the world, but he may have proved me wrong.

Today, I appreciate the silence and peace of my home while Liberty is at school until after 3 PM and I am all alone with this delicious book.

Pure bliss!
