Border Songs by Jim Lynch
My rating: 2 of 5 stars

I really enjoyed “The Highest Tide”. I wanted to like Border Songs. It has the same quirky character with similar idiosyncrasies. I loved the setting of my old stomping grounds of the border towns of Lynden, Blaine, White Rock and Abbotsford. Still, something missed the mark where the wry humor and the dysfunction were just a bit too ‘off’. The character development felt more like tangents that didn’t go anywhere. Instead of this book, I would recommend The Highest Tide.
