"From Library Journal
Sadie Hunter earns her modest living taking tourists on boat trips around Key West. If she is in the mood, she will entertain them with fascinating stories learned from her mother and grandmother, who both perished in a storm when Sadie was a child. Over the course of many trips, she spins the romantic tale of her Plains Indian grandmother's doomed love for her grandfather, a mulatto in St. Augustine, and her eventual return to him late in life. Although Sadie's stories sing with passion and intrigue, Sadie herself, at 42, seems like an annoying, self-centered adolescent, endlessly trying to understand why she can't commit to her Cuban boyfriend."
-I tried reading this, and couldn't stay interested. Will pass on to someone else so they may give it a try.
