"One of those books that you cannot put down"

6/17/2014

From the latest review posted on Goodreads, by a reader named Victoria:

"While Mr. Boardwalk will particularly resonate with people who remember Atlantic City prior to gambling, people who grew up going to the Jersey Shore, and people growing up in the 70’s, its well-drawn characters and compelling story should be of interest to a much wider audience.... This is one of those books that you pick up and cannot put down and I cannot recommend it enough."

We couldn't have said it better ourselves. Here's an updated summary of events surrounding the book launch:
