The Reunion is an RT Book Reviews Top Pick!

I’m so excited to share that RT Book Reviews has named THE REUNION, an RT Top Pick for the month!

Travel Like a Local

I do not purport to be an expert traveler, by any means, but I am always on the hunt for tips on how to make a trip more enjoyable and less costly.  So when I can pay that forward and offer the same help to others, I like to do so.
