I spent the majority of this book hating the main character! She complained about everything! I mean come on lady...get-up for an adventure! Change isn't always a bad thing!

Then I had to remind myself...it's just a book!

I loved how this one ended! At the risk of a **SPOILER** I will say...she came around in the end and did the right thing for herself & her kids!

I did however LOVE the dog! Hamish is so like my Daisy!

A solid 4 stars...it is Carole Matthews so it's a minimum of 3 for me anyway!!!

Simple and easy turns (2 more)
only 30 turns can be played in approximately a half hour. But I can also stop anytime and come back to it.
Feels like a digital board game.
I wish the graphics were better, not so retro block-y. (0 more)
I've played about 7 games of this and so far I've not cracked the code to getting more than 2 stars..
So far I really like it and really get into the exploring, an researching technologies. Even the battles are slightly entertaining. It's quick enough to take 2 or 3 turns and put it away on the go.

I had intended to read this book on a Florida beach vacation, which was canceled due to the pandemic. It made me miss the beach, with its lush descriptions of the South Carolina Low Country. Harper finds solace in the beach and a dolphin friend (yes, you read that right). The book is silly and cheesy, and exactly what I would have wanted to read while on my trip. I especially liked Carson and will eventually pick up the next in the series (each book is told from the perspective of a different sister). 3+ stars.
