pick🏠 I love how Mary Alice Monroe weaves a friendly let‘s-take-care-of-our-environment message into her stories. This one has a great parallel between loggerhead sea turtles and mother/daughter relationships. And there‘s a beach house! With a dose of girl power and a pinch of romance the story felt well-rounded. I think I‘ll be continuing the series!

pickI loved this book. It felt like many powerful stories woven into one—touching on WWII, the Holocaust, the Vietnam War, and more. The settings, from the American South to Rome, were beautifully described. What stood out most was the deep character development; by the end, I felt like I truly knew them. A rich, emotional, and unforgettable read. 5 stars!
This is an excerpt from this book written in 1995. It refers to the Vietnam War—but it goes to show you, some things don‘t change:
“After the smoke had cleared, I promised myself I would never lose a friend over something as subjective and slippery as political belief.
‘I‘m an American,‘ I announced to all around me. ‘And I get to think anything I want to—and so do you, by God, so do you.‘”
Powerful words. Still just as true today
Currently reading The Beach House in Orange Beach, Alabama. My husband and I are renting a beach house here with my family from Kansas. Today while I was reading by the beach my niece brought me a pina colada so, yes, it was a good day! 🏖️📖🍹💙
pick⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ great recipes from the lowcountry
My husband & I are going to Charleston, SC next month sans kids. We are staying on Meeting Street. We don‘t have a planned itinerary, besides going to the new African American Museum. It‘s been many years since we‘ve last been there. Any good bookstores to visit?
