Summer Reading List

Best Summer Books

Summer reading is my thing.  I’m not sure why but during the school year it has gotten really difficult for me to get through a book.  The one I didn’t finish last summer, still sits on my bedside table begging to be finished.  I don’t know about you but I had to leave a character “hanging” ….and for so long!

Mysteries are my favorite to read but I’m branching out a bit this summer.  I’ll be finishing this great book and will add another Laura Lippmann to my list.  Someone turned me on to her a few years ago with this book and I love her series about one female private detective.  And I always love a good John Grisham.  This one was great if you’ve not read it.  I couldn’t put it down.

Best Summer Books

Others on my list (you know I had to include a cookbook!):

The Girl on the Train – Great reviews and sounds just like my kind of suspense!

All the Light We Cannot See – I’ve started this as it was recommended by so many friends.

The Nightingale – Another highly recommended and preferred over the one above by a few. Hmmm….

In the Time of Butterflies – This is actually my oldest daughters summer reading but was recommended by a friend as well.  I love mysteries and political dramas.  This sounds like a combination of both!

Boys in the Boat – I love history and everyone I know loved this.   And since my daughter rows, I think I could learn a thing or two as well!

Crazy Love – This isn’t new but a Christian book I’ve been wanting to read. It is a quick read so this is the summer!

Cookbooks for Summer

For Love and Lemons – This looks great for summer!

Endless Summer – My go-to last summer.  If you don’t have it, you need it!

What is on your list?  I’d love some recommendations!
