CALIFORNIA GOLDEN – MELANIE BENJAMIN

In my youth I dreamed of being a surfer, which certainly would have elevated my cool factor! Fingers crossed I can get some vicarious joy from this novel that captures the 1960’s surf culture. In an era where women are expected to be housewives, Carol breaks the mold as a female surfer competing in the male dominated sport. As she chases the waves, her daughters Mindy and Ginger bear the weight of her unconventional lifestyle. This story follows the two sisters as their paths ebb and flow away from each other and yet stay connected by their unorthodox early years.
