SCROLLTO BOTTOM FOR BOOKS & STORIES!
Even with my diminishing vision (I have macular degeneration) I still read "everything." Someone once said of Stephen King that if there was nothing to read in the restaurant he'd read the ingredients on the Tabasco bottle. I'm much like that. And when I come across a gem I like to recommend it to others. I just finished "The Smuggler's Guide to Good Manners" by Kenny Ramen.
This is an eclectic tale of a young man who spends almost 40 years living on a sailboat in which he circles the earth, sometimes carrying a load of contraband. In this case a load of Thailand marijuana to Holland. This book will be particularly interesting to sailboat sailors, and even if you are not of that breed, it is an adventure tale that reads much like a mystery/thriller. .
Kenny Raman is from Atlanta, where I live so I was intrigued from the start. I am (or was) a sailboat fanatic when I was younger so the ocean scenes were authentic and well done. Even if you have never set foot on anting smaller than a 4,000 passenger Disney Cruise Liner, I think you'll enjoy "The Smuggler's Guide to Good Manners." There's lots of romance in it, too. And the bonus? It was a good read at a cheap price. .
Until next week - Good luck and keep writing.
