A couple of weeks ago I won a giveaway on Instagram. It is always exciting to win something – and yet so unexpected as so many people enter. I was doubly excited to win as the book has been recently published, and it is by a Canadian author. I have not read any of her stories yet, so this read will determine whether I head out and pick up any of her other books.
This Summer Break will see me staying at home and not relaxing on the beach somewhere. Instead, I will immerse myself in Marissa Stapley’s novel and imagine myself at a resort somewhere observing the characters in the story.
Are you visiting a resort this summer?

I never go to resorts! I have never found the idea appealing. I do love a nice quiet beach 🙂

Quietly reading or walking on the beach definitely has an appeal. My family and I went to our first resort holiday a couple of years ago and we were pleasantly surprised by how much we enjoyed it.

We went to the resort, enjoyed the meals and some activities. But loved long walks on the beaches and watching the sunrises 🌅

Enjoy your book. When we vacation, I always pack a few books. Just put me near water, give me a tall iced tea, and let me read.
