  1. Yay for meeting your goal! You recommended The Endless Beach on audio and I absolutely loved it. I read Christmas on the Island and I’m kind of wishing I had gone with the audio for it! I’ve gotten the 2nd book in the Lucinda Riley series and a novella from the Royal Spyness series on audio and I’m really looking forward to both!
