That Old Cape Magic by Richard Russo

Tired of reading heavy-duty non-fiction, I wanted a break with some fun fiction, and Richard Russo never disappoints. In That Old Cape Magic the hero is struggling with the deaths of his parents and his marriage. The two intertwine on Cape Cod where he spent a meaningful childhood vacation and also his honeymoon. Now he has returned to dispose of the ashes of his cremated parents and clean his emotional slate before deciding whether his life will continue in Los Angeles or Connecticut. Good read.
