There's something about summer that brings out the reader in me. While chilling in the backyard, heading on trips, or staying up late - I really crave a good book. These nine books all come HIGHLY recommended. If you want to join me, pin this post and let's book talk!
The Wedding Date
This book is cute, quick read. Perfect for your summer beach trip. Warning: it is a bit explicit, but it is a good "chick flick" type of book.
Verity
Colleen Hoover cannot do any wrong. I have loved all of her books, and this time, she goes with a mystery. This book is a page-turner and definitely would be fun for a book club discussion.
The Unhoneymooners
I am still waiting for this one at my local library. It has come highly recommended as a quick read this summer.
The Proposal
I cannot wait to pick this book up - it's a sequel to The Wedding Date (see above). I loved this love story, so I am excited to see where it goes next.
Mrs. Everything
Another favorite author - if you read In Her Shoes and loved it like I did, I bet this book will be a good one, too.
Daisy Jones and the Six
Oh, Daisy Jones and her band. This book is told as an interview of a fictitious rock band and their time together. Remember those Behind the Music documentaries? This book works just like one of those. I was hooked.
Where the Crawdads Sing
This book is definitely the deep-feeling one of the bunch. I couldn't wait for the other 600 people on the hold list to finish, so I caved and bought my own. The beautiful writing and strong development of characters made this one of my most favorites of all time.
Behind Closed Doors
Another mystery my college roomie suggested - I have this on hold, too!
All Your Perfects
Colleen Hoover makes this list again! I am opening this one tonight before it's due next week.
While I included the links to the nine books, don't forget to check your local library. The hold system at ours makes it so easy to grab your book and go. Or, take the kids with you and settle in for some quiet reading time.
Let me know if you have read any of the books on this year's list. And definitely let me know if you have some recommendations to add. Join the discussion over on my Instagram post!
