Greetings Cocoa Beach Residents: Well, spring is upon us! So wonderful to hear the birds chirping and the flowers blooming. This month’s reads are pretty diverse and not my usual curl up on the coach books. My three recommendations this month are a modern-day horror story, a heartfelt memoir where nature, science, and human emotions come together, and a return to the moon by some old favorites.
