A review by tamaralgage1
The Deep Blue Good-By by John D. MacDonald

When I was in high school I lived on the tunes of Jimmy Buffett. There is a song which talks about Travis McGee in Cedar Key. At the time and the years that followed I thought the name was made up by the songwriter. But, discussing books with friends can be educational. I learned that Travis McGee was a fictional character in a series of books by John McDonald (also referenced in the song) and thus peaked my interest.

This book finds Travis McGee docked in Ft. Lauderdale taking life as it comes. It's a light hearted, slow paced, take it as it comes book. McGee has a unique way of making money and worth the effort to read the book. I look forward to the next book.
