Title: Lovely rhythm, interesting slice of life
Review: Tide Running was recommended to me by a friend last spring. At the end of my semester, I eagerly purchased a copy for a leisurely summer read, but found myself tearing through it at break-neck speed. In retrospect, I sense that part of what kept me reading was its wonderful sense of rhythm, both in its sentences, and in the narrative. I enjoyed the different perspectives gained in reading this book about a place I know little to nothing about, and enjoyed this introduction to a very talented writer. The story has stayed with me, and I sense I will be returning to this writer to dip into the lives of her other characters.
