Laws of Migration – A Novel by Author J. Suzanne Frank
I love to read and have been reading books since I was a little girl. When I was younger, I used to read all kinds of books like the Nancy Drew Mysteries, Charlie & the Chocolate Factory, James and the Giant Peach, etc. Even though my taste in books has changed as I have gotten older, I still love to sink my teeth into a good book!
Today’s book review is on a book titled “Laws of Migration” ~ A Novel by author J. Suzanne Frank who is also the author of the popular Chloe and Cheftu time travel series & the Dallas O’Connor mysteries.

Book Synopsis: Birds, especially the ibis, have always fascinated Elize — that’s why she became an ornithologist. But when her boss at the private Texas coastal institute where she’s spent her career gives away her expected promotion, Elize flees to Morocco to lick her wounds and write a research paper that will prove her worth and secure her professional future.
Morocco, with its impressive migration season, exotic flavors, and unwritten rules, is altogether foreign, even if many of the birds are familiar. After a brush with danger, Elize finds herself in Marrakesh, dependent on Erik, a sexy, mysterious stranger who makes her feel alive while opening her eyes to a new, intriguing world. After encountering her ornithology colleagues, who remind Elize of every bad professional choice and missed opportunity, she vows to find the Northern Bald Ibis — an endangered bird few have seen — and impress everyone.
She and Erik journey from coastal paradise to remote desert mountains in search of the birds. Through misadventure, Elize is forced to trust an unknown culture, and through tragedy she realizes that love and forgiveness are attainable. But first she must surrender her past and its pain to embrace her future and fly free.
My Thoughts: I love books that have story lines that include a little romance, some mystery, danger thrown in and some hidden secrets…this book has got it all! On top of that, I love birding as a hobby, so to have that tied into it all…well, it was the perfect book for me!
I think at one point or another…we have all been disappointed that we didn’t get a job or promotion that we felt we deserved. I can totally related to that and I love how that started off this intriguing story. Once Elize arrived in Morocco and started a new journey…I was pretty happy to learn about some of the Moroccan culture and how it was sprinkled into the book. Facinating to say the least.
Now this Erik character that she gets involved with sounds like my kind of man, well…sort of! LOL I can just imagine how hot looking this guy is, by just reading the words written within the pages of this book! He really comes to life by the author’s written words.
The book is basically about Elize’s journey to find herself and how she does that, with the help of Erik beside her. It ends so beautifully and I really hope the author considers a second book on Erik and Elize’s relationship…I bet it’s a good one!
If you are looking for a great read this spring and summer, pick up this new book by author J. Suzanne Frank…it’s a great read!
