If you are like us, Summer isn't really Summer unless it involves sunshine, the scent of sunscreen mixed with faint hints of bug spray, the sounds of splashing children, and a stack of books lounging next to a sweating drink (preferably one that's frozen with a cute little umbrella in it). Summer reading was ingrained in us as children, and is something we look forward to each and every season.
We love a good beach read, but really during the Summer anything goes. We like to mix it up with a variety of genres. From nail-biting thrillers, to sexy rom-coms, to time hopping historical fiction and everything in between - the best part of summer reading is just getting the chance to slow down and enjoy it all.
If you need a little summer TBR help - we've got you covered! We could share suggestions all day long, but want to put these four GREAT reads from some of the world's best selling authors on your summer reading radar!
