      Photo by Jan Ross
      For some of the best, and freshest seafood on Tybee Island, stop by Coco's Sunset Grille. Located right by the marshes which separate the island from the mainland, the restaurant has a great view of the area. Shrimp fresh off the local shrimp boats is the best thing on the menu and sunset is the best time to eat there. Enjoy the beautiful sunset and the friendly servers who will regale you with stories about the island. Be sure to order the unique and delicious fried strawberries for dessert. Dipped in doughnut batter, fried, and served with a dollop of whipped cream, they are truly incomparable. ...

      Portia Nathan’s territory as an admissions officer for Princeton University has been changed from the laid back high schools of the West Coast to the elite and often stodgy schools of New England, forcing her to alter her wardrobe as well as her expectations as she visits schools, answering questions and soliciting applications to Princeton. Even a change of wardrobe doesn't prepare her for Quest Academy, though. Quest Academy is a new private school with unorthodox teaching methods, a seemingly unstructured curriculum and outspoken, unreceptive students. Instead of expounding on the benefits of attending Princeton, she finds herself defending the value of higher education of any sort. Strangely, rather than becoming ...
