Outer Banks: Lights Out: Alyssa Sheinmel

Product Information

If you are more of a books-with-pictures kind of person, then consider taking a look at The Legends of the Sandbar, A Life of Surf on the Outer Banks, by Christopher Bickford.

For this list of books set in the Outer Banks, I’ve tried to hit a variety of locations along the barrier islands. And in a twist of fate unforeseen by anyone around them, there on the porch of the cottage, the two come to love each other deeply, and to understand each other in a way that no one else does. Regardless of whether you are planning a visit to Hatteras, Nags Head, Corolla, or the Ocracoke area, there are lots of Outer Banks books for people of all ages, including kids and young adults, that you need to read.Because they are not rooted in a permanent base, which a true island is, they migrate with changing sea levels. At Nag’s Head, North Carolina, over the course of two idyllic spring breaks, their bonds of friendship were strengthened into something rare and powerfully binding. Yet as she peels back layers of archeological mystery, she finds there are people who don’t want her answering those questions, and they will go to any lengths to stop her. There are many more books on the subject than these four, but we believe what we are presenting here will give readers an excellent understanding of the forces at work on the Outer Banks.

While many people have heard of the Outer Banks from the popular Netflix series show, Outer Banks, there are plenty of books you should read about the area as well. Instead, it only unlocks Bree’s dormant magical powers and buried memory from what happened to her mother. There are plenty of other landmarks that make their appearance, so consider taking a look at this book before your trip. If you are looking for a book full of primary sources on the local area, it doesn’t get much better than that.

When her school bus driver had to remind Shavantay Minnis every morning to put her books away and head to class, she couldn't wait to join a world where she could read whenever and wherever she liked.

The story goes into how the war impacted the local area, but also how the people living in the local area were able to rebuild. Despite her promise to stay the entire summer, her plans are to leave Ocracoke as soon as her grandmother’s cottage was ready to sell.Published in 2011, the book points out that management policies and development practices are in direct conflict with barrier islands dynamics. The book is still firmly in the romance novel spectrum, but for someone who is looking for something in that genre that is a little more nuanced, Outer Banks works well.

Before you head out to the North Carolina Coast, learn more about the Outer Banks of North Carolina from these amazing titles. Kiara plans to participate alongside Kooks like Rafe and Touron (tourist + moron), athletes who are flooding into the island’s hotels from all over the world. You can learn about what makes each of the regions a bit different, and you will be able to appreciate the area during your vacation even more.

And so many authors have noticed how perfect this sandbar is for storytelling that we can’t even include all of them. Cora Mae Basnight is one of the best storytellers of her era, and she loves to share the stories of others, particularly those that come from her hometown. There are plenty of adventures you can enjoy during your visit to the Outer Banks, and you might be looking for a way to get ready for it. My Ex-Best Friend’s Wedding explores what it means to be true to yourself and the sacrifices that may entail.
