Ahhhh.. Summer reading- is there anything better? I think not. I like summer reading- the pretty covers, the lure of the whole day ahead, the fact that it does not begin to get dark till after 8pm! Reading in the summer is almost decadent to me- because wherever I am- it’s like a mini-vacation.
So here are SOME of the books that I’m pretty excited to read over the summer (some I’ve already read in anticipation of summer reads!)- some are straight up beach reads, some are my mystery/suspense that keep me guessing all the book long and there is a couple of historical fiction in here to mix things up!
1. I REGRET NOTHING by Jen Lancaster
2. LUCKIEST GIRL ALIVE by Jessica Knoll
3. THE IDEA OF LOVE by Patti Callahan Henry
4. DEAR CAROLINA by Kristy Woodson Harvey
5. IF YOU ONLY KNEW by Kristan Higgins
7. THE WRONG MAN by Kate White
8. TINY LITTLE THING by Beatriz Williams
10. A BRILLIANT DECEPTION by Kim Foster
11. DOUBLE MINT by Gretchen Archer
12. MOONLIGHT ON BUTTERNUT LAKE by Mary McNear
13. ROME IN LOVE by Anita Hughes
14. THE ONES WE TRUST by Kimberly Belle
15. THE OTHER DAUGHTER by Lauren Willig
16. THE RUMOR by Elin Hilderbrand
17. THE SOUND OF GLASS by Karen White
18. THOSE GIRLS by Chevy Stevens
19. THOSE SECRETS WE KEEP by Emily Liebert
20. X by Sue Grafton
So.. what will be your first read? 🙂
Happy Reading and Bookishly Yours,

Thanks for sharing your list T.
🙂 🙂 You are so welcome!
Anything by Kristan Higgins is an auto-buy, so I would probably put that on the top of my list.
YES!!!! I’m a new fan of hers- but have loved everything I have read 🙂
The Idea of Love is up next for me. Can’t wait to get the new Kristan Higgins! Nice list, T 🙂
Also meant to add that my (Part 1) list will post on Saturday. Part 2 in a month or so 🙂
Yipppppppeeeeeeeeee!!!
The Idea of Love is very cute! I am DYING to get my hands on the new Kristan Higgins book!
Great list! I just posted my summer reading list yesterday…but it’s books I’ve already read. I’ll be doing new releases I’m excited about on Tuesday. Tiny Little Thing will be on my new releases list and I’ll be starting it soon! I’m also sampling Luckiest Girl Alive!
Oh yay!! *runs off to check your list* 🙂
You have some great books listed, T! And I’ve added a few of them to my list – I’ve still not read Emily Liebert’s previous books, but this one sounds like a winner too!
I read Emily’s first book and LOVED it. Her 2nd book slipped by me and I’m hoping to snag a copy of this book.
Excuse me, but is it summer? Because it is definitely not summer in Colorado, yet!
I saw ya’ll got some snow 😦 Ironically, after I post this- MS gets a freak cool spell in MAY.
These look like good summer reads. I love reading in the summer because READING OUTSIDE. I love it. On the beach, by the pool, at the park, on the deck, in the yard – just outside. It really does feel like a mini-vacation just to take a book and read at those late hours!
READING OUTSIDE. Yes. Perfection!
Thrilled! Thank you, T.
You are SO welcome! 🙂
You are SO welcome! 🙂
Great list T! I’ve already read Dear Carolina, and I’m starting The Sound of Glass very soon. There are a couple on this list that I’m hoping to get next week at BEA, and a few others that I’ve added to my already exploding tbr!!
WHOOOOO!!!!!! 🙂 🙂 I’m always glad to add to another blogger’s exploding TBR 😉
A few of these are on my list too! I do love summer reading. 🙂
Summer reading just makes me SO happy! 🙂
Thanks for including Dear Carolina on her, Tamara! So excited!! Can’t wait to meet you next week. Woo hoo!! xo Kristy
