Three Great Beach Reads Set on the Gulf Coast

Longing for sand between your toes and the sound of waves in your ears but can’t get to the beach? How about taking a mental trip with a book that’s actually set on a beach? In no particular order, here are three books set on the Gulf Coast that will transport you mentally to the beach until you can get there physically:

The Summer We Forgot by Caroline George

This coming of age young adult tale takes place on 30A, a narrow but bustling country road tucked along Highway 98 between Destin and Panama City Beach, Florida. Fun fact, I lived on in Seagrove Beach on 30A for about five years.
