Everyone is always talking about finding a good beach read for summer. I get it. I probably read 3 times as many books in the summertime as I do the entire rest of the year. There’s nothing like sitting on the beach with a good book. Or by the pool with a good book. Or on the back deck with a good book… you get the drift.
I’m always looking for my next great beach read, and you probably are too. So I went to my Facebook Page and asked the most savvy women I know for their best recommendations, and then I compiled this list. ENJOY!!!

Very cool. I’ve not read one of these, I’ll have to start in!
Awesome…thanks so much! I’m vowing to read in the mornings and evenings instead of browsing the net !
Thanks for the recommendations. I like to read fiction on the treadmill year round and in the summer :-). Great post!
Anything Mary Kay Andrews writes is a page turner. Love her books. Going to the beach in three weeks and can’t wait to read Beach Town.
That is on my Want to Read list on Good Reads. 🙂
Yup, have Beach Town on my list, along with Blueprints. I only two books this vacation, so I can have some for our trip in July.
Very exciting!
This is such a great summer reading list! I’ve already read a few of them (Gone Girl and We Were Liars) but the rest of the list looks great! Up next on my reading list is Zoo by James Patterson 🙂
Are you on Goodreads? Have you read Nobody’s Cuter Than You? Great read!
I am, and no, I haven’t. I should add that to my list of books I want to read. I should utilize Good Reads more.
What a wonderful, full of great info, site….just found you today but will become a loyal follower, to be sure.
Thanks for so much useful information
