Welcome to Litsy!

Bittersweet coming-of-age story about #twins growing up on an island in the Chesapeake Bay. Picture is of a different bay in Maryland but gives a good idea of the landscape. #newyearnewbooks

#Pop23 ~a book you read more than 10 years ago. I read this in 6th grade, living in Massachusetts at the time. Revisiting it in my adulthood as a Maryland resident, the eastern shore life is much more prominent. It made me sad as these islands are sinking and becoming inhabitable but it was fun to revisit this coming of age story.

I'm thoroughly enjoying this book and some tea and the last of this year's roses. 😊

Hanging out at Fall Softball Tournament. Two hours until our next game? No problem! Grandma brought a book. One more win and we‘re in the Championship! Go Rangers!

One thing I enjoyed about Chesapeake Blue (aside from seeing what happened to Seth,) is revisiting the Quinn clan, I wasn‘t disappointed. They were all part of the book without taking over Seth and Dru‘s story. Dru and Seth complemented each other so well. SEA SWEPT, RISING TIDES, INNER HARBOR, CHESAPEAKE BLUE all great reads. The Quinn siblings and the dynamics of the families work well with each storyline, it will be hard to say good-bye.

All I can say is “I LOVE THE QUINN BROTHERS!”

I raced through this engaging read, absolutely unputdownable. Rising Tides is the second book in the series Chesapeake Bay I loved Ethan‘s story and how he connected with Seth. I can‘t wait to read Phillip‘s story, it‘s a great series to get lost in.

Even casual readers know summer season is a relaxing day on the sand with a swoon-worthy romance. SEA SWEPT by Nora Roberts is that hot beach read to make it a relaxing escape, great first book to the series Chesapeake Bay.

This book came at exact the right time… a gentle, quietly funny novel about the lengths we will go for the ones we love. ❤️

Everyone says this is a feel good and hopeful book. I didn't really get that. It felt very much like a typical romantic plot, which I am not usually drawn to. Maybe I was just not in a feel good and hopeful mood.
