BORING!

Here, in San Jose del Cabo, there is no swimming ... the beach is black-flagged as unsafe.  But you certainly can do a beach walk, as we have done every day.  The surf breaks about 30 feet out, and it is shallow only that far ... maybe 30 or 40 feet.

"Shallow' is the operative word in the last sentence.  This book is shallow.  The plot, if it exists, is shallow, and the characters are interminably shallow. Three Days in June is 61-year-old Gail's story ... the day before her daughter Debbie's wedding, the wedding day, and the day after.

IMHO, a terrible and boring book.  I do not recommend you waste your time.
