Hello all you fans of summer and romance books! We have a brochure that lists all of the beach-y authors (both major series and standalone novels scattered throughout) available on our shelves at our branch. A great resource to see all the books in a series is fantasticfiction.com. It is open for public viewing, so you can scroll it on your phone or print it out to make a checklist as you work through an author.
