When the beach calls, I go to the beach. But tucked in with my towel, sunscreen, and sunglasses is the latest page-turner that I’ve picked up. Surf’s up? Indeed! But what’s going to happen in chapter 5? It’s a wild ride without even getting wet! So when I saw the new release Surf’s Up about a surfer dude and his bookworm brother, I knew I had to give this book to one of you!
