You'll really ...I love Mary Alice Monroe books! You'll really enjoy The Beach House series. By now, I'm sure you have discovered the author is an active marine and wild life conservationist...the Beach House series focuses on the sea turtles. She has a couple of stand alone books that I have enjoyed as well..."Skyward" is about a veterinarian who operates a birds of prey center near Charleston...there actually is an Avian Conservation and Birds of Prey Center located in Awendaw, SC. And "Sweetgrass" is about a family who owns land lush with the native grass used in basket-weaving; threatened by modern era development.<br />I'm with you! Any book started by December 31 goes on that year's list regardless of when I finish reading it! I read 34 books in 2021...more than I have read in recent years but off from my initial goal I started out with by reading a book a week. Life happens!!! rachiebellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04802134528176080691noreply@blogger.com
