2023 Beach Reads Part One

To meet my criteria for a good beach read, first of all, the book must tell an awesome story that will keep my mind from wandering to the responsibilities and worries I’ve left at home. Bubbie’s beach read must carry me into literary land, where people are fascinating, every page paints a picture, and the author wraps up the story so nicely that I feel happy when I finish the book, even though I am sad it’s over.
