My Review:

I love the cover of The Girl From the Papers by Jennifer L. Wright. I happened upon it in a bookstore and read about half of the back. The storyline drew me in, and I decided to get it from my library.

Seaside Letters is the third book in the Nantucket Love Stories series. It can easily be read as a standalone novel.  Kathryn Lynhurst is a wonderful narrator. Her tone and pacing are just two reasons I continue to listen to books she narrates.
