Summer Reads

It’s summer time! I have decided to compile a list of books I think might just be perfect for whatever your summer has in store for you, whether it is by the beach, campfire, or just on your couch!

*a good number of my choices are Young Adult fiction which can make for quick and enjoyable reads perfect for the summer!*
