Today I'm linking up with Top Ten Tuesday hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl which is all about lists. Since lists are one of my favorite things this is one of my favorite linkups! Today's topic is Beach Reads. I'm not really a big reader at the beach because it's hot and I'd rather be in the water BUT if I was these are some of the books I'd read. I'm looking for escapist fast paced reads and I think these will be good fits!
1. It's a Love Story by Annabel Monaghan - This looks so fun and I've heard such great things about this author.
2. She Didn't See It Coming by Shari Lapena - This looks like a creepy thriller that might give me a sunburn because I'd get so caught up in the story I'd forget to reapply the sunscreen!
3. Swept Away by Beth O'Leary - I do love a good forced proximity trope.
4. Beach House Rules by Kristy Woodson Harvey - This book looks lovely and beachy and I've really loved what I've read by this author.
5. Christa Comes Out of Her Shell by Abbi Waxman - I've really loved what I've read by this author and this looks quirky and fun.
6. She's Not Sorry by Mary Kubica - This is another sunburn thriller I think!
7. One Perfect Couple by Ruth Ware - There's a tropical setting and Ware is fantastic at complicated and claustrophobic plots.
8. Every Single Secret by Christina Dodd - This series has been completely bonkers and such fun. It really just demands beach reading!
9. What Happens in Paradise by Elin Hilderbrand - This takes place on a tropical island with lots of drama and secrets.
10. The Weekenders by Mary Kay Andrews - Most of her covers just seem to demand to be read at the beach and this one looks all kinds of dramatic with some serious secrets.
What kind of books seem like beach reads to you? What would you take on a beach trip?
You've got some good ones listed here. I haven't read any of these, but I've read other books by some of the authors. Beaches - well, I'm not really a beach person. Too much sun (bad for my skin as my dermatologist will say) and I don't like sand. Give me mountains instead or at least gazing at mountains. However, we each have our fun places.
ReplyDeleteI didn't know about the Beth O'Leary book, I have read a few of hers and like them. Great list.
