BOOKS LIKE CAMINO ISLAND SERIES
A very good read in what is shaping up to be an excellent series for book lovers, or just fans of the crime literature genre.
Grisham does a masterful job of the crime thriller genre ad I will likely be adding some of his works from the last few years into the mix over the next few months. In reading this it was like visiting with an old friend. There are some authors I tried to return to after long breaks and just could not get back into the author or their books.
And I have already picked up the next volume Camino Winds. The story was great to read on a summer weekend. But I am thankful for their sharing about this book, and my responding to it. I doubt I would have picked up this or even another Grisham novel if not for the friends suggestion. And when the story was recommended my director stated, “Didn't know the life of a book store owner could be so adventurous!” and I would agree. I have known a few serious collectors over the years, and most of them would have taken a shady deal to get their hands on something they really wanted or desired. But he has also dabbled in the shadowy side of rare volumes. Both he and his wife live the writer’s scene and entertaining. I can state I have yet to meet one like Bruce Cable. Having been friends with several bookstore owners, both for new and used books. She is recruited by the insurer of the manuscripts to go back to Camino Island and try and befriend Bruce and sort of spy on him. The third is Mercer Mann a young novelist who had a great first offering but has yet to write her second novel. The second is Bruce Cable a book shop owner and book collector who live and works on Camino Island. The first is a gang of thieves who steal 5 original manuscripts from a Princeton University Library. The story has a number of threads that merge together in a surprising way. I have many friends who are authors and as a book blogger who published my first review over 15 years ago the book was very entertaining ad often amusing. As a confirmed bibliophile, and former collector of first editions and signed volumes the book was fascinating on many levels. This book was mentioned by a director at work recently, so I picked it up and read it in three sittings over a weekend. His writings just sort of fell off my radar as I pursued new authors and genres. But the last of his offerings I read was 19 years ago when I read Skipping Christmas. I read several of Grisham’s early novels.
