Cold Storage, Alaska by John Straley

I took an Alaskan cruise in 2013, so I enjoy reading about it.  And this quirky little book makes me want to live in one of the little villages we visited.  I mean, really, everyone knows everyone and everyone has to trade boyfriends and spouses because there aren't many people. 

I would loosely call this a mystery.  It's really more of a situational comedy about two brothers in a small Alaskan village.  The people are strange, the weather is cold, and a lot of people get drunk.

Did I love it? No.  Did I enjoy it? Meh.  It was okay.  But I won't be hunting down other books by this author.
