Along The Infinite Sea
Pepper Schuyler is trouble. She’s got a nose for it. A figure for it. Pepper and trouble love to tango.
Pepper thinks she has found a way out of her recent troubles, though. Discovering a Mercedes, she secretly has it restores and plans to sell it an auction- thereby earning a tidy sum- maybe enough for an unmarried woman to go with the baby she’s carrying and live a life- free from people who might find the child an inconvenience.
Cue Annabelle. A woman who might love trouble as much as Pepper. After she buys the car from Pepper and begins to reveal why she wanted the car- Annabelle takes Pepper under her wing.
ALONG THE INFINITE SEA tells the story of two women- Pepper and Annabelle. Both strong. Independent. Opinionated. Women whose lives are more difficult (however richer) for the choices they have made.
Traveling With T’s Thoughts:
I 100% fell in love with Beatriz Williams’s writing style when she blasted into my life with A HUNDRED SUMMERS. Ever since then, I have anxiously awaited a new story in her saga.
ALONG THE INFINITE SEA is a bit of a bittersweet read for me- it’s the last Schuyler sister book and I will miss those stories.
With it already being established that I am a Beatriz fan- let’s just get into what I liked about the story:
- The Cover. My gosh, is actual art as pretty as this cover? I think not. Please, I beg of whoever does the cover art for Beatriz’s covers- let’s talk. I need a large size print of this cover. Pure perfection.
- The story of Annabelle. It always amazes me how much I learn about history when reading a book by Beatriz. My heart always breaks just a bit thinking about the hardships of the women she writes about.
- How I kept guessing and re-guessing who Annabelle’s husband was. I was back and forth. Forth and back. And just when I thought Beatriz had dropped a clue for readers- I was once again surprised. LOVED it.
- The comments that Pepper makes. Pepper’s feisty. 2 thumbs up.
I could actually go on and on- but I want you, the reader, to find out your own reasons to love Pepper, Annabelle and Beatriz.
Bottom line: Buy this book. But be sure to read the previous ones in the series. While technically each book can stand alone- things are revealed about previous books if you read them out of order.

I’m reading The Secret Life of Violet Grant now and cannot wait to keep reading more about the Schuyler sisters. So good! Loved your review!
YAY!!!!! I love to hear that! 🙂 🙂
Hi T, I can hardly wait to read Along the Infinite Sea, which I have ordered! I funny thing, while I love this book instantly from the cover (its a beautiful piece of art) I was immediately drawn and surprised to read the review and find that its about the Schuyler sisters….I am also a Schuyler, it is my middle maiden name!!! Its not an every day name so am curious to read, and also find out more. I will look for the previous books and want to read them also.. Know I am going to love this book!!
I think you will really enjoy Beatriz’s books. They are entertaining and wonderful!
Wow…what a fantastic review.
You definitely know how to write a clever, interesting post that pulls a reader in.
I read this book already and loved it, but if I hadn’t read it, I would have run out and immediately bought it after reading your post. 🙂
All of Ms. Williams’ books are so good.
Thanks for sharing and making readers aware of this great title.

I’ve got this one waiting for me…have been focused on Nonfiction Nov, so haven’t been able to get to it yet, but I will for sure!
Can’t wait to hear what you think!
Sounds wonderful! This book has been recommended to me several times! xo
It’s such a good series. I have loved all the books that Beatriz writes (except Overseas- I haven’t read that yet and it’s unrelated to this series!)
Can’t wait to read it!
Oh I think you will enjoy it!!! Have you read her other books?
Yes and loved them. I even read The Forgotten room due out in January. It was so delicious..
Oh I bet The Forgotten Room was delicious. Did you request it via Netgalley or get an ARC? I want to read it- but I may wait till it’s in stores to read at my own leisure.
I got it via Netgalley…I recommend leisure. It moves pretty quickly though.
Perfect! 🙂 I think I’m def going to buy at some point. My review pile is getting rather *ahem* large and I am doing quite a few other things in blogging as well.
Bottom line – totally agree with you. Like you I went back and forth over which man Annabelle was with. And really liked feisty Pepper. Great read.
I LOVE when you agree with me 🙂 🙂 🙂 I was SO back and forth- and I LOVED it!
Oh my…I want The Forgotten Room.
I see Karen White teamed up with Beatriz Williams and Lauren Willig…I don’t know Ms. Willig.
That book must have definitely been DELICIOUS. 🙂
Thanks for the info, fredreeca.
Oh I bet you will love The Forgotten Room!!
I can’t wait to read this one The Forgotten Room! I heard, that these three ladies had such fun writing this book together! Carol
I have heard the same thing- have you ever met Karen White? You couldn’t NOT have a good time with her!
I’ve read this. Loved it (like the others). I got so wrapped up in the story of the two women and the two timelines. Could not put it down.
YASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!! My thoughts exactly!
OMG, I was so very impressed meeting Beatriz Williams, she is one smart, lovely, talented lady….felt so lucky to have had this experience! Along the Infinite Sea, is fabulous, I can’t put it down, but want to savor every page! Carol
SO glad you got to meet Beatriz. She is lovely!
I want to read The Forgotten Room too. It has to be good with those three wonderful authors.
I don’t know Lauren Willig, but if she teamed up with Beatriz Williams and Karen White, it can’t be anything but marvelous.
Thanks for sharing this information.
You’re welcome!! Hope you enjoy it!
I have it ordered (since I didn’t win your giveaway…..lol). I need to read Tiny Little Thing so I can keep them in order. I adore her writing, and can’t wait for her collaboration book in January, and whatever comes next.
LOL- I was hoping you had ordered it since you didn’t win. I was sending out good vibes for you! Her next book, after the Jan one, is coming out in the summer 2016. I forget the name- but it’s available for request via EW (although I have not been approved yet)
I received an unsolicited copy of this book, which means it hasn’t made it to the top of my pile yet, but I’m glad to hear that you liked it! 🙂
You will love it.
Move it up in the pile. 🙂 🙂
Have a good reading week.
AGREED!
I really like Beatriz’s writing style. I just find her to be so entertaining!
