Shadow Song

Shadow Song by Terry Kay is a very good read. Summer of 1955 revisited with very dear old friends and old memories. Old loves and new life. Hopefully, everyone has a summer of '55. Some I've read and enjoyed lately: The Rector's Wife, The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society, A Redbird Christmas, Tender is the Night, Luncheon of the Boating Party, The Art of Racing in the Rain.
