![]() ![]() Deeply invested in the series and it's characters.ģ) So much in The Fool of Main Beach was a surprise. Overall, I very much enjoyed this book!Ģ) Love the characters, setting, and plot. Merle's narrative tone had me laughing outright at places I don't know many authors who can use phrases like "the cockles of his balls" without distracting me from the mood! But the turns of phrase were very entertaining. Watching Tom inadvertently put idiots in their places just by being his unassuming, sweet self was lovely. The epilogue ending did feel a little too good to be true in some ways, but it almost didn't matter because I wanted that extra cherry on top for these characters, and I ended up wondering happily about how their lives would further play out. I appreciate that though character conflicts were resolved to satisfy the story, they were not all fully tied with a bow, which gives the story a certain realism. ![]() The characters were very likable what's more, I didn't like them all at first, but by the end, I had gotten to know the real people behind the actions, and that is quite rewarding as a reader. ![]() Info from the other books is referenced, but effectively, without overly summarizing or depending upon that info to follow the plot of this story. 1) I especially liked that though it is part of a series, this book stands very well on its own. ![]()
