I thought The Cottage at Glass Beach was going to be a summer chick lit type read. It was a little more fantasy and myth than I expected. Selkies and such. I liked it, though I had a hard time caring about any of the characters for the first 50 or so pages – but by the end, I liked them all. I’d rather have read the story of the generation before Nora’s – that seems like the more interesting one. Maeve & Maire… sisters. Much more interesting than the only child Nora with daughters of her own…
