Beach Read

A classic Beach Read is a novel deeply rooted in the beach house/town. The setting is almost a character in the book. Usually, someone is at a crossroads in their life and they find a new path forward through their time at the beach.

A good Beach Read sets a pace of summer at the beach - it has twists and turns, axillary characters woven throughout, parallel plot devices, and often a love story in the mix too.
My Beach Read is making me miss my time at the beach this winter.
